Augsburg College
Education
in a Real World
S
tudents commonly speak of graduating from college as a
way of getting into "the real world." In fact, Augsburg College provides students with an education in a real world. The diversity of the faculty, staff, and student body, the structure of
the curriculum, and the academic environment mirror the complexity of life in contemporary society.
The college's location in and involvement with a metropolitan
setting offer continuous access to cultural opportunities, career
experiences, and social realities that enrich students' educations. Augsburg's commitment to the liberal arts recognizes
that the reality in which contemporary persons live and the persons themselves have been shaped by the tradition and history
from which they come. The real world was not made this moming, and it is not simple. Only a broad education can present our
world a s it is and give persons the ability to deal with it. Similarly, Augsburg College's continuing dedication to its heritage
as a college of the church affirms a belief that the world is the
creation of a loving God and that human persons are inescapably spiritual beings.
T h e C o l l e g e Mission Statement
These qualities of an Augsburg education flow from its mission
statement which declares that the college exists to provide high
quality educational opportunities which are based in the liberal
arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian church
and by the context of a great metropolitan center.
Augsburg's location in the heart of the city represents the loom
on which the multi-colored fabric of its identity has been woven.
While students are prepared to take a place in and make a contribution to the world in which they live, they are educated to be
critical of the quality of life in their society and to be reflective of
their own values as they respond to it.
". ..based in the liberal arts
"
The academic program emphasizes the continuing validity of
the liberal arts a s a foundation for developing the life of the
mind. Augsburg College's faculty are dedicated to challenging
their students to achieve the highest academic standards while
supporting them in that endeavor with excellent teaching and
individual attention.
Students are expected to develop their abilities in critical
thinking and communication and to gain sensitivity to and
appreciation for their own and other cultures. Each student is
encouraged to contemplate the eternal philosophical and
spiritual questions of human life and of personal values and
ethics. At Augsburg the great scholars, thinkers, writers, and
artists of the past and present are studied and valued.
Augsburg College considers an understanding of the content
and method of science, a recognition of the place of technology,
and an understanding of ways to maintain a sound body as
important elements of a complete education.
This insistence on the breadth of a traditional liberal arts
education reflects a firm belief that human beings are more
than their ability to perform a job. It reflects further a concerted
attempt to direct students toward a full development of the
many facets and capacities of the educated person.
". ..
..
shaped. by the context o f a great
metropolitan center"
Yet, bounded as it is by an interstate freeway and the center of a
vital city, Augsburg College is no ivory tower escape from the
real world. The college community continually interacts with the
city by attending cultural events and civic activities and by
inviting city residents and visitors to the campus as lecturers,
performers, and mentors. The city becomes a laboratory for
experiential learning through internships, professional program
field experiences, and cooperative education placements.
". ..and shaped by faith and values."
This involvement with the real world is a reflection of
Augsburg's spiritual heritage which values all that God has
created. While its tradition supports intellectual freedom in the
search for truth, the college affirms its belief that all students
should reflect upon their ethical and spiritual values a s part of
becoming educated. Students are encouraged through religion
courses and through opportunities on campus for the practice
and examination of spirituality to consider their relationship to
others, to society, and to the world.
Traditionally Augsburg College has insisted that an aspect of
these relationships is contained in the motto: "Mucation for
Service." In these words the college expresses a belief that,
whatever career they pursue, graduates should consider the
duty of citizens to contribute to the common good through
service to others.
\N
ithin the larger community of the city and the world,
Augsburg College is its own community. It is a community of support and collegiality composed of persons of diverse
talents: of varied ethnic, national, cultural, and religious backgrounds: and of complementary interests and orientations.
Through a competent, committed faculty and a dedicated staff,
Augsburg College builds with its students a real world in which
the whole person can be educated and developed.
Augsburg
College
History
A College o f the Church
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in
America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in
Augsburg, Germany, in 1530.Augsburg opened in September 1869,in
Marshall, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872.The first college
students were enrolled in 1874 and the first college graduation was in
1879.
Early Leaders
Establish a Direction
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876).
Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway - Sven Oftedal
and Georg Sverdrup. These three men clearly articulated the direction of
Augsburg: to educate Norwegian Lutherans to minister to immigrants:
and to provide such "college" studies that would prepare students for
theological study.
In 1874 they proposed a three part plan: first - train ministerial candidates, second - prepare future theological students and third - educate the farmer, worker, and businessman. The statement stressed that
a good education is also practical.
Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rqjected ivory tower
concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has
been Augsburg's theme for over one hundred years.
Education for Service
Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, Georg Sverdrup, Augsburg's second president (1876-1907),required students to get pre-ministerial experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the
community gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto
"Education for Service."
In the 1890s, Augsburg leaders formed the Friends of Augsburg, later
called the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent
congregations committed to congregational autonomy and personal
Christianity.This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the small Lutheran body. But the college division was still important primarily as an attachment to the seminary.
The F o c u s C h a n g e s
This attitude began to change alter World War I. In 1911Georg Sverdrup
Jr. became President. He worked to develop college departments with an
appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be
ministers. Augsburg admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of
Gerda Mortensen, Dean of Women. She spent the next 52 years at the
college as a teacher and administrator.
The college's mission assumed a double character ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In
1937, Augsburg elected Bemhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly
teacher, to be president (1938-1962).His involvement in ecumenical
and civic circles made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city
life.
After World War 11, Augsburg leaders made vigorous efforts to expand
and improve academic offerings. Now the college was a larger part of the
institution than the seminary, and received the most attention.
-
Accreditation for the College
Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offering
a modern college program based on general education requirements
and elective mqjors. With cumculum change came a long effort to become accredited.
The college reached full accreditation in 1954, although many alumni
had entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that
time.
A study in 1962 defined the college's mission now as serving the good
society as a whole first, and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church
second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther Northwestern Seminary) in St. Paul in 1963.
A College in the City
President Oscar A. Anderson (1963-1980)
continued Augsburg's emphasis on involvement with the city, He wanted to reach out to non-traditional student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all
people. During his years of leadership the college became a vital and integral part of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music
Hall, Mortensen Tower, Urness Tower, the College Center, Ice Arena and
Psychology Building.
Since 1980Augsburg has been led by Charles S. Anderson. He has continued Augsburg's commitment to the value of a liberal arts education,
emphasizing diversity in enrollment efforts, spiritual growth and freedom and an academic program that draws on the resources of the city a s
extensions of the campus and classroom.
Serving the
Non-traditional Student
Augsburg's American Indian Program is recognized as successful. The
program has had the highest retention rate of Indian students in Minnesota -some 85 percent. The Black Student Affairs Program, initiated in
1969,has had a growing number of students and supports a Black Student Union and a newspaper distributed by the office.
The campus is accessible to the physically handicapped with a skywaytunnel-elevator system connecting nine major buildings. In only its second year, Augsburg's program for the learning disabled had 30 students
enrolled. The program received a state award for excellence.
Weekend College, started in 1982with 69students, had an enrollment of
nearly 500 in fall 1985.Through Weekend College, adult students can
work fulltime and pursue a bachelor's degree that has a practical focus
on a liberal arts base.
These programs bring working adults to the campus. They're complemented by the new Cooperative Education Program (begun in 1984)
that sends Augsburg students into the workplace. The Co-op Education
Program helps students get career experience in addition to their classroom studies.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the
founders who believed:
Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community
and church:
education should have a solid liberal arts core with a practical dimension in order to send out productive, creative and successful citizens:
the city with all its excitement, challenges and diversity, is an unequaled learning laboratory for Augsburg students.
Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution set in the heart of a great
metropolitan center. There are now more than 11,000Augsburg alumni.
In a world that has changed much since those first days of the college,
Augsburg still sends out graduates who make a difference where they
live and work.

Financial
Aid
Financing higher education could be the most significant investment a
person or family makes in a lifetime. So, proper planning and wise
choices are important, not only in choosing a college, but also in the
methods used to pay for it. Augsburg College, through its Office of Student Financial Services, will help students and their families with both
monetary and advisory assistance to protect access to a quality education in spite of increasing costs.
Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg is a combination of
scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time work opportunities. The College cooperates with Federal, State, church, and private agencies in
providing various aid programs. For the academic year 1984-85 approximately 85% of all students at Augsburg received scholarships,
grants, loans and part-time employment totalling over $6,200,000 from
all aid sources.
The primary responsibility for financing a college education rests upon
the student and family. Financial aid is intended to supplement student
and family resources.
The Family Financial Statement (FFS) of the Amerlcan ~ o l l & eTesting
Program (ACT) or the Financial Aid Porn (FAF) of the College Scholarship Service (CSS) helps determine the amount or assistance for
which a student is eligible. This analysis estimates the amount a student and family can be expected to provide for college expenses, taking into account such family financial factors a s current income, assets,
number of dependents, other educational expenses, debts, retirement
needs, and special considerations.
How and W h e n to Apply
New Students
-Regular Admission
1. Apply for admission to Augsburg College. No financial aid notification is made until the student has applied and been accepted for ad-
mission.
2. Obtain the Family Financial Statement (FFS) or Financial Aid form
(FAF) from a high school or college financial aid office. Complete
the application and send it to the processing agency after January 1
but before March 15for priority consideration. Minnesota residents
must complete the FFS which includes the application for the Minnesota State Scholarship/Grant Program. Augsburg's code on the
FFS is 2080. For non-Minnesota residents using the FAF, Augsburg's
code is 6014.
3. Within three to four weeks, Augsburg will receive the analysis. If a t
that time you are accepted for admission, the Financial Aid Committee will meet and review your eligibility for all the programs available. A letter will be sent to you detailing your financial aid package.
4. Acceptance of this financial aid package is required within the deadline stated. If necessary, the appropriate loan forms and/or work applications will then be sent to you.
5. Transfer students must submit a financial aid transcript from each
college previously attended before financial aid will be offered.

Early Decision
This is for students who select Augsburg a s their primary college
choice. An Early Decision Candidate must apply by November 15of the
senior year and will receive the admission decision about December 1.
1. Early Decision Candidates applying fur financial aid may wish to
complete the Early Decision PinancIal Aid Appljcatlon, available by
writing or ca lllng t h e Admissions OWce. This enables our Financial
Aid Office to colnpute a preliminary award before the Family Financial Statement is filed. Candidates will be notified of their award by
January 1.
2. For confirmation of the financial aid award package, with any nec-
essary revision, the FFS (or FAF for non-Minnesota residents) must
be completed after January 1.
Returning Stadenha
Eligibility for assistance must be re-established each academic year by
filing the application and Family Financial Statement (FFS).Renewal is
based on financial eligibility, satisfactory academic progress, and fund
availability.
K i n d s of Aid
A student applying for aid from Augsburg applies for assistance in gen-
eral rather than for a specific scholarship or grant (except as noted).
The various forms of aid available are listed here for information only.
In addition to aid administered by Augsburg College, students are
urged to investigate the possibility of scholarships, grants, and loans
that might be available in their own communities. It could be worthwhile to check with churches, the company or business employing parents or spouses, high schools, service clubs, and fraternal organizations for information on aid available to students meeting their
requirements. In addition to these sources, some students are eligible
for aid through Vocational Rehabilitation, Education Assistance for
Veterans, Educational Assistance For Veterans' Children, and others.

education.
Campus
Ministry
a college of the church, we are concerned about spiritual, a s well as
As
academicand social growth. Our concern for spiritual growth is evident
in the opportunities we encourage and provide for students to explore
their own faith.
Since our campus is comprised of individuals from many different religious and cultural backgrounds, our worship life is characterized by a
similar diversity and richness of tradition. Bible studies, fellowship
groups, outreach teams, planning committees, retreats, Peace and
Justice forums, Hunger conferences, concerts, plays and movies are
examples of the wide variety of activities on campus.
This ministry finds its most visible expression in chapel worship where
students, faculty and staff gather each Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
to give thanks and hear the Gospel proclaimed by a number of speakers and musicians. Each Wednesday night students gather for Holy
Communion.
We seek to develop a free and open environment where people are encouraged to use and discover the gifts that God has given them. A s a
college of the church, we encourage students to form their own values
which will be the basis for the kind and quality of life that reaches beyond one's years at Augsburg.
The College Pastor has an ofice in the College Center to be readily
available for counseling, consultation, support or information.
Student

Through student government students secure a closer relationship
with and better understanding of the administration and faculty, and

issues pertaining to student life at Augsburg.
Student government is organized into the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. Elections are held in the spring
for the next year. Freshmen elect their representatives in the fall of
their first year. Many kinds of involvement are possible - program
planning, writing, editing or service opportunities. If you want to get involved, contact the President or Vice President of the Student Body in
their offices in the College Center.
Social, Cultural,
Recreational

recognizes t h a t t h e environment for learning is a critical factor in
achieving growth. Knowledge grows from more than intellectual endeavors. Expanding relationships, exploring values, identifying life
styles, developing autonomy and interdependence, finding purpose
and commitment - all combine with intellectual content and skills to
produce the educational impact of the college on its students.
The Division of Student Affairs supports this task. During the summer
before your freshman year, or a t the time of transfer, you will receive a
copy ofAugsburg Guide. This book will help you assess the possibilities
in your education, choices to make, directions to consider and different
destinations for which to plan. Augsburg Guide was designed t o act a s a
sort of road map.

The Center for Student Development provides a variety of services t o
help make yourjourney rich and meaningful. Some of the opportunities are listed below.

for classes. Students and their parents get acquainted with classmates, faculty, and
staff as well as with the campus. They stay in the dormitory, attend events in the met:

life. All new students will have a chance to review their interests with a counselor.
Job Service. Augsburg College maintains a referral service in the Placement Office,
Center for Student Development, to help students find part-time, temporaty, and

year to help you grow in understanding of yourself and your relationship to others.

Major, Issues in Men's and Women's Identity, Assertiveness, Job Seeking, and Sexuality are available. Information on current offerings and opportunity to register are

learning environment depends, in part, upon his or her living conditions, a variety of housing alternatives is provided. The residence hall
program promotes student growth by asking students to actively participate in group decision-making. Each residence unit has one or more
Resident Staff who facilitate the process of group living and discuss personal concerns with individual students.
Augsburg requires all freshmen and sophomores not living at home to

sign the housing contract. The fee is credited to the students' accounts
when they move into the residence.

A
ugsburg College constructs its cumculum upon the
premise that students must be educated as full human
persons: intellectually, spiritually, and physically. To act effectively, human beings must have a broad grasp of the world from
which they have come as well a s the world in which they live. By
providing courses in the humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences, the general education cumculum introduces students to the breadth and complexity of knowledge and culture.
Required courses in religion are designed to acquaint students
with the Christian tradition and encourage them to reflect upon
the importance and meaning of spirituality in their lives. Recreation courses offer students the opportunity to develop skills for
participation in exercise and sporting activities.
Students choose from over forty mqjor areas of study to gain a
depth of knowledge in a discipline and to prepare for a career or
further study. Thus, through a balance of cumcular activities
supported by full programs in student life and religious life, an
Augsburg College education strives to educate its students in a
real world for the real world.

Introduction to Interim
Interim is an integral part of the school year at Augsburg College.
The College follows a 4-1-4 calendar, with Fall and Spring semesters of approximately 14 weeks separated by a four-week January
Interim. Interim is particularly intended to be a time for both students and faculty to employ styles of teaching and learning and to
investigate questions and topics in places and ways not possible
during the regular term. There will be no summer Interim in 1988.
Since one Interim course equals a full-time load, students should
plan to spend the same amount of time in class and preparing for
class as they would for a four-course load during Fall and Spring
semesters. Students can register for only one course credit during
Interim. There is no tuition refund for a student who chooses not to
enroll in an Interim course.
Most Interim courses are graded traditionally on a 4.0 to 0.0 scale.
Students generally have the option to register on a Pass/No Credit
basis. A few Interim courses are graded only on the P/N system;
this is indicated in the course description.
Some courses are offered with either upper or lower division standing. Such Interim courses have two numbers listed and the student
must select. Students registering for upper division standing should
anticipate additional assignments and a more rigorous grading
standard.
To graduate, an Augsburg student is required to complete 35
courses of which at least three must be Interim courses (or one Interim less than the number of years of full-time enrollment at Augsburg; e.g., a transfer enrolled full time for two years is required to
complete one Interim for graduation).
It is the policy of Augsburg College not to discriminate on the basis
of race, creed, national or ethnic origin, age, marital status, sex or
handicap as required by Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as
amended, in its admissions policies, educational programs, activities and employment practices.

About this Catalog
The catalog lists courses by departments. Departments are listed in
alphabetical order. At the end of the book are listings of other
courses not offered by Augsburg but recognized by the college for
Interim credit. Further descriptions and information about these
courses are available in the Interim Office, Memorial 230. Students
may also register for one of the Lifetime Sports listed at the end of
the Catalog.
Options
International Interims - Students are invited to be part of one of the
26 international interims offered by the Upper Midwest Association
for International Education (UMAIE). These course opportunities
are listed near the end of this catalog.
Internships - Students electing an internship must present a completed internship learning contract to the Internship Office (Memorial 230) no later than Tuesday, November 24. Contract forms are
available in the same office.
-
Independent or Directed Study Students may elect a program of
independent study (upper division 499) or directed study (lower
division 299) for Interim. Faculty members are strongly discouraged from accepting responsibility for more than one independent
or directed study per interim. Students choosing to pursue independent or directed study must:
1.Meet departmental requirements.
2. Present to the Registrar for approval a copy of the proposed
study plan approved by the supervising faculty member. This
proposal must be submitted at least one week before registration and no later than December 4. Appropriate study proposal
forms can be obtained in the Interim Office.
Interims at Other Schools - Augsburg students may enroll at any
other 4-1-4 institution which offers a reciprocal Interim arrangement. Catalogs of these Interims can be consulted in the Interim
Office. The Interim Secretary will help students in applying for registration at other schools. Registration for Interims at the other
Twin Cities colleges will be at Augsburg during the regular registration period. Most courses taught during the Interim at other 4-1-4
schools are accepted for credit by Augsburg, but may not necessarily be accepted as meeting Augsburg's distribution requirements.
This qualification particularly affects courses offered for the Religion requirement.
Visiting Students
Augsburg College welcomes students from other 4-14 schools for
the January Interim without tuition charges provided the student's
home institution agrees not to charge tuition to Augsburg students
for the January term. The waiver of tuition does not include special
fees, housing or board costs. Other students will be charged $560
for the Interim course. Students interested in registering for an
Augsburg Interim should write to the Interim Director for application forms or use the forms provided by the interim office at their
own school. There is an application processing fee of $10. Students
are welcome to stay on campus but are not required to do so. Requests for Interim housing should be made to the Interim Office.

1 Biological Evolution
BIO 107-48003
Instructor: Ralph Sulerud
That organisms have evolved and, accordingly, all creatures are biologically related are probably the most significant conclusions which biology has contributed to human
knowledge. The anti-evolutionist arguments of the "scientific creationist" will be investigated in this course. However, to the vast majority of biologists evolution is accepted as a fact, and the evidence in its support will be
examined.
Biologists do not agree concerning the mechanisms and
pace of evolution. Indeed, theories as to these matters have
evolved and continue to do so. Much of the course will
involve historical study of evolutionary thought from preDarwinian times to the present. Finally, we will address the
course of evolution from the origin of life itself to the origin of human life.
There will be a variety of readings, and classes will consist
of lectures and discussions. Grading will be based primarily on quizzes and tests.

Instructor: Dick Herzog
In this course we will focus on the responsibilities of business to society and consider problems that businesses and
business people face in a world of competing value systems. We will explore the moral foundations of capitalism
and the use of reason to study systematically business conduct and behavior.
Topics will include discrimination/affirmative action,
truth in advertising, insider information, corporate take
overs and green mail, multinational corporations and so
on.
There will be lectures, discussions and probably some
guests. Students will write and defend in class two essays
on assigned topics. There will be a final examination.

Management Simulation Games
BUS 278-48071/378-48072
Instructor: Amin Kader
During this course, students will be grouped into teams to
play a computerized business management exercise. Each
team will control a company which manufactures and sells
similar products. Each team will attempt to outperform
other teams by selecting what appears to be the optimal
operating strategy. This strategy will involve setting production volume, marketing expenditures, and selling prices
and determining plant and securities investments as well as
stockholders dividends.
Students registering for upper division credit will be expected to have had at least one business course and to be
able to apply business concepts learned.
The lower division credit is designed for students who are
interested in business but who have had no academic business training. This level will require students to rely on
systematic and deductive analysis which will allow students to discover for themselves the relationship between
the various component parts of the business decision. The
lower version of the computerized game will be used for
this group.

Chemistry
'
fur Changing Times
CHE 100-48005
Instructor: Arlin Gyberg
This is a non-laboratory chemistry course based on the
very popular book by John W. Hill of the same title. It is
not a traditional chemistry course and does not assume a
science background. Basic science and math are introduced
early and are taught as needed for understanding the various topics and implications. The course does assume the
student is interested in and concerned about the relationship of chemistry to life and living.
Chemistry has been intimately a part of liberal education
for centuries. The early scientists were considered to be
philosophers and their societies were philosophical societies. In recent decades the human seeking of personal independence has led to chemistry becoming a part of everyday life to the point of actual dependence on chemistry. We
live in a world of pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, "the pill",
food additives and processed foods, vitamin supplements,
the energy crisis, chemical dependency, biocides, pollutants, drugs, searching for life on other planets, genetic
manipulation, and it goes on and on. Emotions and mental
disorders can often be traced to chemical imbalance. The
common dragged out, grumpy feeling after an afternoon
nap is a result of a chemical imbalance. The nature of a
hangover is the result of a complex system of altered body
chemistry. Even learning appears to be the result of chemical reaction to form a "memory molecule". Most of the
problems we face are molecular in nature. What then but
chemistry can better help us to understand ourselves, our
society, our world, and our universe? Come join us as we
take a molecular look at the human condition.
This course will be offered in a lecture/discussion format.
Films will supplement the lecture/discussion periods. Daily
quizzes will be used for evaluation. This course meets a
distribution need but does not satisfy prerequisites for
Chemistry 106 or 116.

Chemistry in Health
CHE 120-48006
Instructor: John Holum
This course will progress from a study of basic principles
of chemistry (with emphasis on acid-base equilibria) to a
study of the chemical reactions by which our bodies manage the transport of oxygen and waste carbon dioxide in
the chemistry of cellular respiration. We shall study several
situations in which this chemistry goes awry - drug overdoses, overbreathing at high altitudes, emphysema, diabetes, hysterics, and pulmonary diseases. There will be some
attention to the nature of chemistry in particular and science in general. Average of four two-hour lectures per
week with demonstrations; evaluations by hour examinations and a final. This course meets distribution but does
not count toward a chemistry major or minor.

fke Once and Future King: Arthur Through
the Ages
ENG 130-48018/ENG 430-48025
Instructor: Joan Griffin
"Hic jacet Arthurus Rex quondam rexque futurus (Here lies
King Arthur, the once and future king)." These words, legend says, are engraved on the tomb of the greatest king
who ever lived, Arthur of Britain.
But another tradition says that Arthur never died. Instead,
he was taken to the magical island of Avalon after he was
wounded in his last battle. There he will remain until the
world has need of a leader as great as he.
In fact Arthur has returned again and again in myth, legend, poetry, novels, and films. Arthur (and Arthurian
themes) have appeared in the works of great writers like
T.S. Eliot and James Joyce. But he's appeared just as often
on the best seller lists (in novels by Mary Stewart, for example), on the stage (Camelot) and in the movies (Excalibur).
King Arthur is as compelling a figure in modern imagination as he was in medieval literature. Why7 Who is this
Arthur7 Who was he in his own time, and what has he
become throughout the centuries7
Our quest for the meaning of King Arthur will take us
from medieval to modern times. We will look at classics
like Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morta D'Arthur, and Alfred,
Lord Tennyson's Idylls of the King. We will also look at
more popular works like T.H. White's Once and Future
King and movies like Monty Python and the Holy Grail
and Excalibur.
Evaluation will be based on a number of short papers, contributions to class discussion, and an exam. Students enrolling for upper division credit will also be asked to lead a
class discussion and write a long paper based on additional
readings.

Rock 'N' Roll: Lyric, Metaphor, Lore
ENG 355-48019
Instructor: John Mitchell
Devotees of rock and roll music tend neither to listen to the
lyrics nor to understand them when they do, probably by
preference. This course will examine the language of rock
and roll, emphasizing figures of speech and other poetic
techniques (metaphor, irony, etc.) and their thematic implications. Feature films, ranging from Blackboard Jungle to
Woodstock to The Wall, will also be examined for their
cultural implications and themes. Students will be required
to take tests and to write an extended analysis based upon
assigned readings and the use of language in the music. A
fee will be charged to help pay for film rentals.
Prerequisites: ENG Ill-Effective Writing
Time: I1
Room: Science 123
Five College Advanced Short Fiction
Writing
ENG 362-48058
Instructor: Carol Bly
This course will focus on writing short stories, but will also
include a study of basic fiction theory and the reading of
excellent works for use as examples. There will be frequent
in-class exercises, short (200 word) homework fiction to
write, peer and class critiquing and frequent conferences
with the instructor. Small group work will be encouraged.
We will explore sophisticated means of writing short
American literature--with emphasis on generosity of plot,
sensuous detail in place and time settings, presentation of
characters, brisk and lovely language as well as we can
manage.
Grades will be based on writing, class participation and
evidence of the grasp of advanced literary principles.

The course will focus on taking the student to a competent
level of sailboat handling (anchoring, mooring, helming
and crewing). The student will live aboard a 39 foot fixed
keel sailboat with five other people and will function as an
active member of the crew. Actual on the water instruction
will be the major part of the course. Sailing will include
cruises to the various islands and cays in the British and

INS 18848063
Instructor: Bruce Reichenbach
What is it to be a human being? We will first raise questions about the extent of our knowledge, about the meaning of life, and about values. Secondly, we will explore
how individuals are related to their society. We will analyze, among other things, the nature and purpose of education and the role of the individual in the state. Finally, we
will focus on the impact which contemporary developments in artificial intelligence have on how we view ourselves.
The course will emphasize reading original sources from
various historical periods, and frequent written interaction
with those readings. Several short papers plus written
preparation for small group discussions will be expected.

Images of America: From Wilderness
Forest to Urban Sprawl
EVE
INS 188-48064
Instructor: Ron Palosaari
When Europeans first settled in America they found themselves in a wilderness they hoped to transform into a garden. We modern Americans find ourselves in an increasingly urbanized environment and want simultaneously to
transform the city to make it more liveable and also to flee
the city and escape its problems by going back to nature.
In this course we will study some works of literature and
other texts that will help us understand how we got our
attitudes toward city and country. We will consider the
Greek development of the idea of the city, move on to the
Hebrew and Christian conceptions of the ideal society and
then study some of the development of American ideas
about country and city. Students will be expected to develop a personal statement of their attitudes towards the
rural and the urban. Students will write three papers and
take a final examination. We will take a field trip or two
and have several guest speakers.
Texts:
L. Mumford, The City in History, selections
I
Plato, The Republic, selection
Bible, selections
Augustine, The City of God, selections

Leadership in the City
flz/E
INS 188-48065
Instructor: Richard Nelson
It has often been observed that leadership cannot be
taught. While that is probably true, it is definitely true that
leaders and leadership can be profitably studied. In this
course we will study leadership within the context of the
city. Through readings, discussion, and lectures we will
view the ancient and modern city and selected problems
within urban culture which require the development of
various types of leaders and styles of leadership. During
the first two weeks of class we will read from texts and
view films which will provide us with background material, and since all events are rooted in time, much of this
material will be historical in nature. The third week of the
course will be devoted to time spent observing the city.
Each student will visit with a leader in our metropolitan
community whom you will interview in order to gain primary data about his or her role as a leader. In addition,
you will work in teams to view the life of the city and
formulate questions and observations about the nature of
our metropolitan area. In the final week of the class we will
reserve time for individual and team reports to be given in
class. During the course you will write four short papers
(3-4 pages), prepare oral reports based on your week in the
city, and write three short exams. Each component, the
short papers, the oral reports, and the short exams will
comprise 30% of your final grade. Your participation in
discussions will count 10% of your final grade.

INS 188-48065
4
Instructor: Julie Bolton
The Twin Cities is among the three largest theatre centers
nationally. In this seminar we will use current local productions as a laboratory for our exploration of meaning in
drama and theories of drama (expectations and needs of
the audience, the nature of the dynamic process which is
related between the actor and audience, and the differentiation between the play and the production). Play productions which were available in 1987 were Shakespeare's As
You Like It, Chekhov's Uncle Vanya, Ping Chong's Nosferatu, and David Hare's A Map of the World among others.
The seminar will focus on the themes: city/rural, artificial/
real, technology and civilization/nature, sin and darkness/
healing and restoration. We will use as background material classical humanistic texts: Job, Plato's The Republic,
Shakespeare's Macbeth, Adam's The Dynamo and the Virgin and Lewis Mumford's City in History.
Three productions will be viewed on which three 3-5 page
critical reviews will be written and shared with the group
as a basis for discussions. Research problems will require
library use. Play productions will be supported by visits to
art museums. There will be a fee for play admissions.

Interdisciplinary
Externship: e ink in^ ducati ion and the
World of Work
INS 299-486%
Instructors: Garry Hesser and Lois Olson
Learn from your experiences. Discover new ways to learn
by observing, collaborating, and reflecting on your experiences.
The externship is a modified internship consisting of a halftime placement and active participation in a seminar that
meets twice a week. Each student will be assisted in the
process of securing an unpaid placement where s/he can
obtain valuable first hand experience in the world of work.
The course is designed to achieve two major objectives: 1)
to enable students to observe and experience the relationships between the worlds of work and the classroom; and
2) to expand the students' abilities to learn from first hand
experience.
Each participant will observe and work approximately 20
hours per week in a placement which matches his/her major or career interests. The seminar will meet twice a week
for approximately two hours. Evaluation will be based
upon the overall quality of participation, supervisor assessment, critical incident analysis, journal/log and seminar participation.
Participants will complete a resume by November 24 and
secure a placement before the end of Fall classes (December
11).
Prerequisites: Permission of instructor and placement secured by December ll.
Women, Men and the Bible
INS 181-48027
Instructor: Bev Stratton
Who are the women of the Bible7 How have women been
involved in or neglected by the Jewish and Christian faiths
through the centuries7 How have other religions dealt with
gender issues7 What does the Bible say about the roles and
relationships of women and men in the family and in the
church7 How do our images of God and our language effect our beliefs7 When must masculine pronouns be retained in Biblical translation, and when is inclusive language appropriate? How do our religious understandings
of the roles of women and men impact our actions in society?
We will explore these and other questions through extensive reading and class discussions. Our focus will be on the
Judeo-Christian tradition, but we will also consider other
religions, modern reactions to patriarchy, and inclusive
language for worship. Evaluation will be based on class
discussions, quizzes, short papers, exams, and a project.

Politics and Process in Education
INS 183-48053
Instructor: Norm Ferguson
Ever wondered about the advantages and disadvantages of
the formal education you are experiencing? How have the
educational methods you have been exposed to shaped
your view of yourself and the world7
The objectives of this course are to examine the processes
used today in American education (from elementary
school through college) and to evaluate them from a variety of social science perspectives (political, psychological,
sociological). The content of the courses will include topics
such as: cooperative learning, experiential education, individual learning styles, whole-brain learning, social responsibility, and student-teacher interactions.
Class time will be devoted mainly to the discussion of topics such as these. Guest speakers will illustrate some of the
alternative approaches to education being used currently
in the Twin Cities. Evaluation will be based on: (a) class
participation and (b) two papers or one paper and one
class presentation.

INS 262-480
Instructors: Joel Mugge and Gary Olson
Students will visit Jordan, Israel, the West Bank and Egypt
to examine historical, cultural, socio-economic and political factors in interaction. The course will include readings,
lectures and field experiences designed to illuminate life in
the Moslem, Jewish and Christian communities and to increase understanding of the political and social dynamics
which have engendered conflict in the region. Participants
will meet with people and organizations representing the

H Social Work and Community Services in
Great Britain
SWK 346-48059
Instructor: Rosemary Link
Great Britain is an exciting mixture of ancient and modern
- ancient in its culture and modern in its social policies.
The course explores social work services with this dual focus. We will visit a variety of community agencies: formal
public, private, and natural helping networks in a range of
urban and rural settings. In order to experience the nation's
culture, we will be invited to English family homes, meet
with social work students, attend theatre performances,
and visit historic treasures.
London is the nerve center for the countrv's resources and
we will begin by visiting some of its foremost community
institutions such as Great Ormond Street Childrens' Hospital and Toynbee Hall Settlement. With the help of English
social work students, we will unravel the post Second
World War commitment to universal social policies. These
policies have established services available to all citizens in
health, education, income maintenance, housing, and personal social services. They also provide the major working
turf of the social work profession.
As a contrast to the inner city of London, we will visit
Exeter and explore the rural and beautiful coastal West
Country. In addition to the formal 'public' social work
agencies such as Probation and Corrections, we will make
contact with informal services and the small, more extended family oriented fishing and farming communities.
Throughout the course, there will be an emphasis on understanding current national policies and attitudes through
cultural and literary connections. Therefore, visits to the
National Theatre, The Houses of Parliament, cathedrals,
and ancient community sites such as Oxford are an integral
part of recognizing and appreciating the whole community. Culture and history come to life during day excursions through the gentle English countryside to Oxford and
Stratford, Warwick and Coventry, Bath and Canterbury.
Students will complement their direct experience by reading the British press and current social policy pamphlets,
journals, and books. Suggested Readings: A. Kahn and S.
Kammerman, Not the Poor Alone; M . Bruce, The Rise o f
the Welfare State; l? Barclay, Social Workers: Their Role
and Tasks; Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist; any play by
G.B.Shaw, and the 'quality press' - The Guardian, The
Times, The Telegraph.
Student evaluation will be based on a summary of a reflective journal, an agency study, a critique of a current social
policy (which includes a comparison with their American
experience), and participation in visits and discussions.
The comprehensive fee of $1,965 includes air and surface
travel, accommodations, six dinners, four theater tickets
and a one week London travel pass.
Registration for this interim must be made before October
23 in The International Center, Old Main 20.

and Namibia, and opportunities to meet visiting students and faculty members from our partner
institutions in Norway, Germany, Finland, and Slovenia. Inspired by the faith of our Lutheran
founders to be inclusive to the early immigrants who came to Augsburg’s doors, we welcome a
diversity of cultures and faiths.
Although each graduate program has its own “neighborhood” and unique features, we
encourage interdisciplinary courses and opportunities for you to study with colleagues across
disciplines. We encourage both “horizontal” initiatives—i.e., cross-program collaboration—as
well as “vertical” initiatives—engaging our undergraduate students to consider graduate work.
This means that sometimes you may be encouraging classmates who are just beginning to
imagine a graduate degree.
We are companions on your journey in fulfilling your dream of a graduate degree and we cannot
wait to meet you.
Sincerely,
Barbara A. Farley
Vice President of Academic Affairs and Dean of the College

About Augsburg College
At Augsburg College, we believe that graduate education should prepare gifted people for positions of
leadership in their communities and places of work. Augsburg graduates will be able to demonstrate
not only the mastery of a major field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve problems, act
ethically and communicate effectively in a global world. The heart of an Augsburg education is the
Augsburg mission, informed by the liberal and professional arts and sciences, to serve our neighbors
in the heart of the city with faith-based, ethical values. We welcome students from a diversity of
backgrounds and experiences. Also, our programs look to the world through international courses and
cultural exchanges.
Mission Statement
Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers,
and responsible leaders. The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged community,
committed to intentional diversity in its life and work. An Augsburg education is defined by excellence
in the liberal arts and professional studies, guided by the faith and values of the Lutheran Church, and
shaped by our urban and global settings.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the
confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in
September 1869, in Marshall, Wis., and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. A short history of Augsburg
College can be found at www.augsburg.edu/about/history.html
Today, Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of its founders who believed:
• Education should have a solid liberal arts core at the graduate level; this focus centers on the ability
to think critically and broadly about the world and the work we do in it;
• An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and centers of faith;
• The city—with all its excitement, challenges, and diversity—is an unequaled learning environment.
The vision of the College’s work today is lived out in the phrase, “We believe we are called to serve
our neighbor.” Through common commitments to living faith, active citizenship, meaningful work, and
global perspective, Augsburg prepares its students to become effective, ethical citizens in a complex
global society.
Degrees Offered
Augsburg’s undergraduate program of liberal arts and sciences is offered on both a traditional
weekday schedule and a non-traditional weekend and evening schedule. Augsburg offers the
following graduate programs:
Master of Arts in Education (MAE)
Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL)
Master of Arts in Nursing (MAN)
Master of Business Administration (MBA)
Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies
Master of Social Work
Doctor of Nursing Practice
Dual degrees:
BA in accounting/MA in leadership
Master of Social Work/Master of Business Administration
Master of Social Work/MA in theology, with Luther Seminary
Augsburg is enhanced by its global centers in Namibia, Mexico, and Central America. Students can
perform research, take courses, or consult with faculty in those locations to gain new perspectives on
their discipline.
A Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg’s graduate programs is participation in a community of adult
learners. This community is enriched by the presence of men and women with a variety of work and
life experiences. To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages students to
make use of all College facilities such as Lindell Library, the Kennedy Center, and the Christensen
Center, and to participate in College activities such as music and dramatic presentations and
athletic events.
Graduate Faculty
The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and Augsburg College is particularly proud of the
excellence and commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate or other terminal degree,
and all consider teaching and service to be the focus of their activity at the College. Faculty are
involved in social, professional, and a variety of research activities, but these support and are
secondary to their teaching. Faculty are actively involved in a dynamic faculty development program
that introduces them to best practices in teaching and learning techniques and theories.
Augsburg’s small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and
students. Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.
Minneapolis and Rochester Locations

three trimesters in each academic year, and students can enter degree programs in the fall, winter, or
spring. Several complete degree programs are available through the Rochester campus. In addition,
students may work on a variety of other majors through a combination of Rochester-based courses
and courses taken in the day or Weekend College program on the Minneapolis campus. Students
who enroll in Rochester courses are required to use technology in the learning and communication
process through the online course management system. For more information, go to

College, 2211 Riverside Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55454, or 612-330-1058.
FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 as amended, provides certain rights
to students regarding their education records. Augsburg College understands that no information
other than “directory information” can be released without the written permission of the student.
Students must give permission in writing for educational information to be released to anyone outside
of the official personnel (faculty and administration) at Augsburg. For example, this means that faculty
or others cannot write letters of support/recommendation or nominate students for awards unless
explicit written permission is given by the student to release non-“directory information.” It is not
sufficient to ask for letters of recommendation.
In accordance with FERPA, you are notified of the following:
Right to inspect and review education records
You have the right to review and inspect substantially all of your education records maintained by or
at Augsburg College. You must request to review your education records in writing, with your
signature. The College will respond in a reasonable time, but no later than 45 days after receiving the
request.
Right to request amendment of education records
You have the right to seek to have corrected any parts of an education record that you believe to be
inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of your right to privacy. This includes the right to a
hearing to present evidence that the record should be changed if Augsburg decides not to alter your
education records as you requested.
Right to give permission for disclosure of personally identifiable information
You have the right to be asked and to give Augsburg your permission to disclose personally
identifiable information contained in your education records, except to the extent that FERPA and the
regulations regarding FERPA authorize disclosure without your permission.
One exception which permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate
education interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative,
supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel
and health staff); person or company with whom the College has contracted (such as an attorney,
auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees, or a student serving on an
official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official
performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs
to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.
Right to withhold disclosure of “directory information”
FERPA uses the term “Directory Information” to refer to those categories of personally identifiable
information that may be released for any purpose at the discretion of Augsburg College without
notification of the request or disclosure to the student.
Under FERPA you have the right to withhold the disclosure of the directory information listed below.
Please consider very carefully the consequences of any decision by you to withhold directory
information. Should you decide to inform Augsburg College not to release Directory Information, any
future request for such information from persons or organizations outside of Augsburg College will be
refused.
“Directory information” includes the following:
• The student’s name;
• The student’s address;
• The student’s telephone number;
• The student’s e-mail address;
• The student’s date and place of birth;
• The student’s major and minor field of study;
• The student’s academic class level;
• The student’s enrollment status (FT/HT/LHT);
• The student’s participation in officially recognized activities and sports;
• The student’s degrees and awards received;
• The weight and height of members of athletic teams;
• The student’s dates of attendance;
• The most recent previous educational agency or institution attended by the student; and
• The student’s photograph.
Augsburg College will honor your request to withhold all Directory Information but cannot assume
responsibility to contact you for subsequent permission to release it. Augsburg assumes no liability for
honoring your instructions that such information be withheld. The Office of the Registrar must be
notified in writing of your intent to withhold your Directory Information. If the notice is not received by
the registrar prior to Sept. 15 (or within 10 school days of the start of a subsequent term for a new
student), it will be assumed that all Directory Information may be disclosed for the remainder of the
current academic year. A new notice for withholding disclosure must be completed each academic
year.
Right to complain to FERPA Office
You have the right to file a complaint with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act Office, U.S.
Department of Education, 400 Maryland Ave. S.W., Washington, D.C., 20202-4605, concerning
Augsburg’s failure to comply with FERPA.
Reporting Educational Information
Letters of reference must be requested in writing and explicitly indicate what information may be
reported in the letter.
Academic Programs and Policies
Academic Calendars
Most of our graduate programs meet on a trimester calendar. Physician Assistant Studies classes
meet on a semester day schedule.
The official academic calendars for individual programs can be found at www.augsburg.edu/registrar.
All academic calendars are subject to change.
Academic Policies
The College and its faculty subscribe to the Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom as
promulgated by the American Association of University Professors and the Association of American
Colleges.
Academic Honesty
A college is a community of learners whose relationship relies on trust. Honesty is necessary to
preserve the integrity and credibility of scholarship by the Augsburg College community. Academic
dishonesty, therefore, is not tolerated. As a College requirement, student course projects, papers, and
examinations may include a statement by the student pledging to abide by the College’s academic
honesty policies and to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity. (See Augsburg’s
Academic Honesty Policy in the Student Guide at www.augsburg.edu/studentguide/)
Academic Evaluation
Evaluation of academic performance in each program will be based on number grades using a 4.0
point scale, where 4.0 achieves highest standards of excellence. See each program for details of field
study and special projects. Students must achieve a 3.0 GPA in order to graduate; Physician
Assistant students must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
The numeric grade point definition for Graduate Studies is:
4.0 grade points
Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5 grade points
Achieves above acceptable standards
3.0 grade points
Meets acceptable standards
2.5 grade points
Meets minimum standards
2.0–0.0 grade points
Unacceptable performance

Audit
Withdrawn
Incomplete
In progress, extended beyond term of registration
Withdrawn Status
W—Grade given when a student withdraws from a course after the deadline without notation on
the record
Incomplete (I) Grades
An incomplete grade (I) may be awarded when the instructor grants permission after determining that
a student emergency may delay completion of coursework. Students who receive an incomplete
grade should be capable of passing the course if they satisfactorily complete outstanding course
requirements. To receive an incomplete grade, a student must file an Application for Incomplete
Grade form with the Office of the Registrar that states the reasons for the request, outlines the work
required to complete the course, and includes the course instructor’s signature. The instructor may
stipulate the terms and conditions that apply to course completion; however, students may not attend
the same course (or a portion of the same course) in a following term with an incomplete grade. The
student must complete the outstanding work in enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the
instructor and the filing of a grade before the final day of the following academic term in the student’s
program. If the work is not completed by the specified date of the following academic term, the grade
for the course becomes 0.0.
Academic Probation
Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a student falls below a 3.0
average, the student will be placed on academic probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative
grade point average must be restored in order for a student to be removed from probation. Graduate
students in the Physician Assistant must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
Attendance Policy
Attendance and participation are critical to the success of any course. Evaluation of the level and
quality of participation may be incorporated into the course grade. We view attendance as a joint
commitment of both instructors and students to our professional development. Each instructor has the
authority to specify attendance and participation requirements to address the needs of particular
courses, individual students, or various learning styles.
Lack of attendance may result in a failing grade and the requirement to repeat the course. Students
must notify the professor in advance of any expected absence. In the case of emergency, when prior
notification is not possible, students must notify the professor of an absence as soon as possible.
Continuation Policy for Thesis or Final Project (effective in fall 2010)
Following the initial registration term for the final (or summative or capstone) project, students will be
automatically registered for continuation course 999 each trimester for up to 15 trimesters or until a
grade for the completion course is submitted by the project adviser. Continuation course 999
maintains students’ active status in the graduate program, including library, AugNet, and parking
privileges. This registration will result in a Campus Access Fee of $35 (subject to change as costs
increase) per trimester.
Automatic registration will occur for up to five years or 15 terms. At the end of this time, the course
grade will change from X to N. Students who wish to complete the final project after receiving a failing
grade must meet with the program director to evaluate readmission to the College and program.
Students who are readmitted may need to complete additional course work and will need to pay full
tuition for all additional courses and to repeat the final project course. If/when the final project course
is completed, the new grade would supersede the previous grade.
Students may withdraw from the College, and thus from continuation course 999 and the final project
course, at any point during the continuation period and receive a W notation on the transcript for the
final project course. Following a withdrawal, students are welcome to meet with the program director
to evaluate readmission to the College and program. Students may be subject to additional
coursework.
An accounts receivable hold will be placed on the student’s account if a collegewide $250 unpaid
threshold is reached. The threshold will adjust with the practices of the Student Accounts Office. If a
student owes more than the threshold amount, the registrar’s office will not continue to automatically
enroll the student in continuation 999. The registrar’s office and the Student Accounts Office will
inform the student, the program director, and coordinator that the student must pay the account
(including the late fee). At this point coordinators and/or program directors will communicate with the
student and the faculty adviser and, if necessary, request that the faculty adviser submit a grade
change of N. The student also may elect to withdraw from the College. If the grade change has not
been submitted within one term, the program director will submit the grade change of N.
This policy is effective as of September 2010. Students will sign a contract outlining the terms of the
continuation policy, which will be kept on file with the program and in the Office of the Registrar.
Accumulated charges stand for current students, but beginning in fall 2010 students will be charged
$35 per term. The Enrollment Center will work with students, as needed, who are currently in the
continuation phase and who have accumulated a debt higher than the $250 threshold.
Course credit and contact hours
A full credit course (1.0) is equal to four semester credits or six quarter credits. Each full course on the
trimester schedule meets for approximately 28 contact hours (MSW trimesters meet for 32 hours, and
the PA weekday semester schedule is approximately 45 hours) with the expectation of substantial
independent and group study offered through the web-based electronic course management system.
Doctor of Nursing Practice—For information about course credits and contact hours for the Doctor of
Nursing program, see p. 49.
Degree Requirements
To be conferred the graduate degree, all graduate students must achieve the following:
• Successful completion of all required courses
• A cumulative GPA of 3.0; Physician Assistant students must consult the PA Program Progression
Standards Policy.
• Successful completion of all degree requirements within the stipulated period of matriculation or a
signed continuation agreement with Augsburg College.
Dismissal from the College
A student whose GPA falls below the required GPA for his/her graduate program (3.0 in most
programs) in two or more terms may be subject to probation or dismissal. A plan for the student to
continue in the program may be worked out with the program director.
Students may also be dismissed for violation of standards of behavior defined by their profession,
their program, or the College.
Dismissal Appeals Process
A student may appeal a program’s dismissal decision using the College’s program dismissal appeals
process. Appeals are limited to procedural errors that the student can demonstrate negatively affected
the outcome.
The student initiates the appeal process by submitting a hard copy of the statement of appeal to the
Assistant Vice President of Academic Affairs and Dean of Graduate Studies (AVP-Graduate Studies);
email is not acceptable. The statement must identify each procedural error and state how each error
negatively affected the outcome. The statement of appeal will be the only basis of the student’s
appeal. The AVP-Graduate Studies must receive the student’s statement of appeal within 14 calendar
days of the date on the department’s written notification of dismissal.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the statement of appeal to the program chair/director.
The program must submit a response to the student’s statement of appeal within 15 business days of
the date that the statement was received by the AVP-Graduate Studies’ office. A hard copy of the
program’s response should be submitted to the AVP-Graduate Studies. The AVP-Graduate Studies
will send a copy of the program’s response to the student.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will convene the Program Dismissal Appeals Committee, which will
include the AVP-Graduate Studies as a non-voting chair and three program faculty members (one
from programs not named in the appeal: Social Work, Education, Physician Assistant Studies,
Nursing, Business, Leadership). The Program Dismissal Appeals Committee will schedule its hearing
within 15 business days of receipt of the program’s statement of response. The Committee will meet
with the student and a program representative to review the procedures and ask questions of both the
student and the program representative. The student and program representative may each bring a
third party to the review meeting (limited to an Augsburg College faculty member, staff member, or
student). The role of the third party representative is to provide support to the student or the program
representative, not to serve as an advocate during the meeting.
Dropping Courses or Withdrawing
Students who enroll in courses but later decide not to attend must formally drop their courses through
the registrar’s office prior to the start of classes to avoid being charged for those courses. Students
who do not properly drop courses will be responsible for the tuition, regardless of non-attendance.
Courses may be dropped or withdrawn online through AugNet Records and Registration or in person
at the Enrollment Center during hours of operation. If you need assistance with this, contact your
program faculty at least two days in advance of the start of classes.
Independent Study
Students may request to complete an independent study course as an addition to the required
coursework. A faculty sponsor is required for an independent study project, and project proposals
must be approved by the program director in order to receive credit. Normally, independent study may
not be used as a replacement for a standard course offered in the curriculum, with the exception of
the general elective (if approved). A special independent study registration form is required and is
available at the Enrollment Center.
Terms of Non-attendance
Students who interrupt their program enrollment for longer than one semester or three trimesters must
readmit to the College and program to resume their degree program. For an absence of any length,
students should coordinate with their program director prior to leaving. Due to a variety of program
schedules and cohorts for some degrees, it is required that students meet with their adviser and
obtain the advice of their director.
Evaluation of Transfer Credit
Students may petition the program director for transfer credit to apply to program requirements. The
transfer of credit will be evaluated on an individual basis. Students will be asked to provide
appropriate documentation regarding previous coursework, including but not limited to an official
transcript, course description, and syllabus. In order to be considered for transfer, a course must be
from a regionally-accredited college or university and graded 3.0/B or better. Courses must have been
taken at the graduate level and course content must be comparable to program requirements at
Augsburg.
The maximum number of course credits that can be transferred to these program is as follows:
Master of Arts in Education (2.0)
Master of Arts in Leadership (2.0)
Master of Arts in Nursing (3.0)
Master of Business Administration (6.0)
Master of Science, Physician Assistant Studies (Contact program coordinator)
Master of Social Work (8.0)
Augsburg course credits are equivalent to four semester hours or six quarter hours. Therefore,
transfer credits that are reported to Augsburg as semester or quarter hours are converted to Augsburg
course credits by dividing by four or six respectively.
Courses and credits that are accepted in transfer are recorded on the student’s transcript. Grades and
gradepoints from other institutions are not transferred to Augsburg and are not included in the
student’s cumulative grade point average.
Student Rights
The College has adopted a statement of student rights and responsibilities and has provided for due
process in the matter of disciplinary action, grievances, and grade appeal, as outlined in the Augsburg
Student Guide, at www.augsburg.edu/studentguide. Students have a right to experience education
without discrimination.
Grievance Procedures Involving Augsburg College Faculty Members and Students
Part I—Introduction/Preface
Augsburg College is committed to a policy of treating fairly all members of the college community in
regard to their personal and professional concerns. However, times do occur in which students think
they have been mistreated. This procedure is provided in order to ensure that students are aware of
the way in which their problems with faculty members can be resolved informally and to provide a
more formal conciliation process when needed. Each student must be given adequate opportunity to
bring problems to the attention of the faculty with the assurance that each will be given fair treatment.
The faculty member must be fully informed of the allegations and given an opportunity to respond to
them in a fair and reasonable manner.
Definition of Grievance
A grievance is defined as dissatisfaction occurring when a student believes that any conduct or
condition affecting her/him is unjust or inequitable, or creates unnecessary hardship. Such grievances
include, but are not limited to a violation, misinterpretation, or inequitable application of an academic
rule, regulation, or policy of the College or prejudicial, capricious, or manifestly unjust academic
evaluation.
College policies and procedures that do not come within the scope of the Grievance Procedures are
the sexual harassment policy, the sexual violence policy, the Committee on Financial Petitions,
Discipline Process, and Academic Standing.
Time Limits
Time limits will include only business days (M–F) for the program in which the student was enrolled.
(Weekends, and vacation days are not included; summer may not be included depending on the
student’s program.)
Part II—Informal Process
It is always the student’s responsibility to know these procedures and timelines and to follow them.
A. Any time a student feels that she/he has been mistreated by a faculty member, the student should
contact the faculty member to discuss the problem and attempt to resolve it.
B. If no mutually satisfactory solution can be reached with the faculty member or if, in unusual
circumstances, the student prefers not to confer with the faculty member, the student should discuss
the problem with the department chairperson of the faculty member and attempt resolution of the
problem.
C. If the problem cannot be resolved in discussions with the faculty member or department
chairperson, or if the faculty member and the department chairperson are the same individual, the
student may contact the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College.
D. The student must begin the Informal Grievance process within 15 days of the conduct giving rise to
the grievance, by submitting an Informal Grievance Form to the vice president of academic affairs and
dean of the College.
•
The time limit to begin the Informal Grievance process for a grade appeal will be 30 days from the
last published finals date for the relevant term. It is the responsibility of the student to maintain a
correct and current address on file with the registrar.
•
If the student could not reasonably be expected to be aware of the conduct when it occurred, the
student will have 15 days to file the grievance from the date on which the student could
reasonably be expected to be aware of the conduct or condition that is the basis for the grievance.
It is the responsibility of the student to establish the reasonableness of such non–awareness. The
vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College will determine if this paragraph applies
to a grievant.
•
The vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College and the student must ensure the
informal process is completed in 20 days. (See Part I for definition of time limits.)
•
In unusual circumstances, the time limit may be extended by the vice president of academic affairs
and dean of the College. A grievant or respondent must submit a written request for such
extension before the end of the time limit. If the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the
College thinks the extension is warranted, the Dean will notify all concerned persons in writing.
E. If the grievance has been resolved, either by agreement or by expiration of the time limits, a copy
of the informal grievance and statements of the resolution will be kept by the vice president of
academic affairs and dean of the College for one year. Neither a copy of nor any reference to the
grievance will be placed in the personnel file of the respondent.
If these informal discussions do not resolve the problem to the satisfaction of the student, a more
formal conciliation procedure is available in Part III of this document. Note: A student must file a
written grievance, per below, within five days after completion of the informal process
Part III—Formal Process Preface
If a student has a grievance with a faculty member that has not been resolved through the Informal
Grievance Process described in Part II of this document, the student may then seek resolution
through formal procedures.
For a complete copy of the procedures, contact the dean’s office, Academic Affairs.

file reviewed by the program director. (Please consult with individual programs for information
regarding readmission process).
Admission of International Students
Augsburg College graduate programs encourage qualified applicants from other countries to apply.
An F-1 student is a nonimmigrant who is pursuing a “full course of study” to achieve a specific
educational or professional objective at an academic institution in the United States that has been
designated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to offer courses of study to such students,
and has been enrolled in SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System).
A student acquires F-1 status using form I-20, issued by a DHS-approved school through SEVIS.
Status is acquired in one of two ways: 1) if the student is abroad, by entering the United States with
the I-20 and an F-1 visa obtained at a U.S. consulate, or 2) if the student is already in the United
States and not currently in F-1 status, by sending the I-20 to USCIS (United States Citizenship and
Immigration Services) with an application for change of nonimmigrant status.
A student who is maintaining valid F-1 status may transfer from another DHS-approved school to
Augsburg by following the transfer procedures set forth in the F-1 regulations.
In addition to fulfilling all general admission requirements for a particular graduate program,
prospective F-1 students must also comply with the following:
A. Foreign Credential Evaluation
Augsburg requires foreign credential evaluation for any transcript(s) from an institution outside of the
United States. This evaluation should include the following:
• Analysis of credentials—to determine if your degree is equivalent to an accredited US bachelor’s
degree.
• Course-by-course evaluation—to show your complete course listing with credit values and grades
received for each course.
• Calculation of grade point average—to demonstrate your cumulative grade point average using
the standard US grading system, i.e., A=4.0, B=3.0, C=2.0, D=1.0, F=0.0.
• Translation to English (if applicable)
The evaluation report must be sent directly to Augsburg’s Office of Admissions. Refer to World
Education Services at http://wes.org for direction on transcript evaluation.
B. Proof of Financial Support
International applicants must provide reliable documentation that they have financial resources
adequate to meet expenses for the duration of their academic program, which include tuition and fees,
books and supplies, room and board, health insurance, personal expenses, and living expenses for
dependents (if applicable).
Funds may come from any dependable source, including scholarships, fellowships, sponsoring
agencies, personal funds, or funds from the student’s family. Documentation of scholarships and
fellowships may be in the form of an official award letter from the school or sponsoring agency;
documentation of personal or family funds should be on bank letterhead stationery, or in the form of a
legally binding affidavit. Government Form I-134, Affidavit of Support, or Augsburg’s Financial
Sponsorship form can be used to document support being provided by a U.S. citizen or U.S. legal
permanent resident. All financial documents such as bank statements must be dated within three
months prior to the date of application.
Health Insurance
All F-1 international students and their dependents (if applicable) are required to have adequate
health insurance coverage for the duration of their program. International students will be enrolled in
the Augsburg international student plan unless they fill out a waiver verifying proof of coverage
through an alternative provider for the same period.
Financing Your Education
Costs for Graduate Studies
Each academic year the Augsburg Board of Regents reviews costs and makes changes as required.
The College reserves the right to adjust charges should economic conditions necessitate.
For current academic year costs for graduate study, go to the Enrollment Center webpage at
www.augsburg.edu/enroll.
Financing Your Education
Financial assistance is available to graduate students who are enrolled in a total of at least 1.0 course
credit per term in any of Augsburg’s graduate programs. Two full-credit courses per term is
considered full time. You may be eligible to finance your education through loan programs from the
State of Minnesota or the federal government. You may also select from a variety of payment plans
available each semester or trimester, including a plan for those who receive company tuition
assistance. Financial aid may be used for international programs where credit is offered.
Payment Options
Various payment plans are available:
• Payment in full: Due after registration and before the beginning of the semester/trimester. No
finance charge or administrative fee. Finance charge of 8% APR will apply toward any unpaid
balance after the start of the term.
• Loans, grants, and/or scholarships: If you plan to use the loans that you have been awarded, you
must request the funding. These loans include Stafford, PLUS, Alternative/Private, etc. All loan
requests (either paper or online) must be received and approved by the lender and certified by
Augsburg’s financial aid office, on or before the first day of the term.
Company Reimbursement
An application for the Employer Reimbursement Payment Plan must be filed once each academic
year. Students enrolled in the payment plan will be charged a $20 fee each term unless the account is
paid in full by the start of the term or if financial aid will cover all costs for the term. This fee is nonrefundable after the 100% drop date. Final payment on any remaining balance is due 60 days after
the end of the course. Accounts not paid in full by the due date will receive a monthly $50 late
payment fee and are subject to further collection efforts. The student is responsible for payment if the
employer does not pay for any reason.
Sources of Financial Aid
The Enrollment Center assists students in assessing financial aid eligibility and identifying various
sources of aid.
Sponsored Scholarships
Augsburg actively pursues non-Augsburg funding for special scholarships. The availability of such
scholarships may enable the participation of individuals with limited financial means as well as
individuals working for volunteer agencies and other organizations not likely to provide tuition
reimbursement. Refer to the program sections or contact the programs for more information.
Military Discount
At Augsburg College, we value the varied professional and academic experiences that our adult
students bring to our campus community and are grateful to those who volunteer to serve in the
military. Augsburg offers a 10% military tuition discount for the following:
•
•
a member of the military currently serving full or part time (any branch)
veteran of any branch of the United States Armed Forces.
The military discount is available only to students in the Weekend and Evening College
undergraduate program and graduate programs. Contact the Office of Admissions or go to
www.augsburg.edu/military for more details.
AmeriCorps Scholarships
AmeriCorps scholarships are available to full-time graduate students. Contact the Enrollment Center

scholarships. Indian grants generally supplement other sources of financial aid. For assistance in
application, contact Augsburg’s American Indian Student Services Program director at 612-330-1144
or your tribal agency.
Federal and State Aid Programs
The Enrollment Center uses standard, nationally accepted methodology to determine eligibility for
federal and state financial aid programs.
Federal Stafford Loan Program
Common Loan Provisions
Borrowing Limits: Graduate students may borrow up to $20,500 per year with an aggregate of
$138,500 (undergraduate and graduate). A student may borrow from either the unsubsidized or
subsidized programs or a combination of both but cannot exceed the annual loan limits.
Repayment Terms: Repayment begins six months after you cease to be enrolled at least half time in
an eligible program leading to a degree or certificate. Repayment may extend up to 10 years.
Deferments: No interest accrues nor do payments need to be made at any time you are enrolled at
least half time or for serving three years in the military, Peace Corps, or VISTA. Contact the
Enrollment Center if you think you are eligible for a deferment.
Supplemental Loans: If additional financing is needed, the Enrollment Center can offer guidance in
selecting the appropriate loan.
To Apply for Financial Aid
Financial aid information is available at www.augsburg.edu/enroll Applicants must be admitted to
Augsburg as regular students or be returning students in good academic standing to be eligible for
financial aid.
Applicants for graduate study must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). To
complete and submit the FAFSA electronically, go to www.augsburg.edu/enroll
If a student is selected for verification, additional documents will be needed. Students in this situation
will be contacted by the Enrollment Center.
Financial Policies
Refund Schedule
Students who withdraw from Augsburg College may be eligible for a refund of a portion of their
charges based on the appropriate refund schedule (except for the minimum charge of $100 to cover
administrative costs). Financial aid may also be adjusted for those students who withdraw from the
College or drop one or more courses and receive financial assistance.
[NOTE: Tuition refunds and financial aid adjustments are not necessarily made on a one-to-one basis.
For example, you could receive a 60% tuition refund but have 80% of your financial aid returned. Be
sure you understand the financial consequences of making adjustments to your registration.]
Students are responsible for canceling courses through the Enrollment Center in order to be eligible
for any refund. Students who unofficially withdraw (stop attending) but do not complete the drop/add
form are responsible for all charges. Financial aid may be adjusted based on the student’s last
recorded date of attendance. Refund calculations are based on the date that the drop/add form is
processed.
The refund schedule is effective whether or not a student has attended classes. All refunds of charges
will be applied to the student account and all adjustments for aid, loans, fines, deposits, etc. will be
made before eligibility for a cash refund of any resulting credit balance is determined. Allow two
weeks for a refund.
The refund is a percentage of the full tuition charged, not a percentage of any deposit paid toward
tuition, e.g. deposits made under the employer reimbursement payment plan.

Master of Arts in Education
We are pleased with your interest in the Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program. Augsburg has a
long history in teacher education with alumni of our programs teaching throughout Minnesota and
elsewhere. We know that Augsburg College is an excellent choice for you to pursue your teaching
dreams and goals—and here’s why.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The Education Department program themes include relationships, reflection and inquiry, diversity and
equity, and leadership. You can read about each theme on the following page, but for the MAE
program, I want to highlight one of the program themes—leadership. As this program theme suggests,
we expect our students to leave our programs as responsive, knowledgeable teachers prepared to
exercise leadership in the classroom and, eventually, the school and community.
Our urban setting provides yet another dimension to our programs through a combination of course
content, field experiences, and classroom instructors. Our goal is that students will leave our
programs as collaborative and capable teachers committed to educating all learners in a diverse and
changing world.
OUR FACULTY
Augsburg faculty members who teach in the MAE program are a mix of full-time and adjunct
instructors, all of whom have K-12 teaching experience. Many adjunct instructors are currently
teaching in K-12 settings; all full-time faculty members are frequent visitors to K-12 settings through
student teaching and field experience supervision, volunteer work, and/or in-service education. We
understand the importance of what we do and what you hope to do. We value good teaching and,
most especially, we value good teachers.
OUR ACCESSIBILITY
We realize that although teaching is your dream, your reality most likely includes work, family, and
personal responsibilities. Because we understand the demands adult students face, we offer flexible
scheduling. A majority of licensure and graduate-level courses are taught in the evenings and
weekends to allow you to manage these responsibilities while pursuing your goals. You will need to
be available during the weekday for the challenge and responsibility of field experiences, but
education coursework is accessible through the weekend and evening schedules.
As a student in Augsburg’s Master of Arts in Education licensure and degree program, you will find
yourself among interesting students and dedicated professors who believe that all children deserve a
good, highly qualified teacher—the teacher you can become.
Vicki L. Olson, PhD
Director, Master of Arts in Education
Education Department Mission
The mission of the Augsburg Education Department is to develop responsive, knowledgeable
teachers committed to educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
Program Themes
Responsive, knowledgeable teachers understand the dynamic interaction among relationships,
reflection and inquiry, diversity and equity, and leadership. These four interrelated program themes
provide lenses through which we filter our practice.
Relationships
Learning is relational and communal. Responsive teachers create significant relationships with their
students, colleagues, and community partners by developing learning communities. These nurturing
learning communities provide a safe, trustworthy place where challenging and engaging questions
can be considered. We model the kinds of learning communities that we expect our graduates to
create. We share with our students a learning model that connects content, theory, and practice in an
ongoing cycle. Students and their learning are the focus for responsive teachers. Therefore we
embrace and foster a progressive and constructivist orientation.
Reflection and Inquiry
Responsive teachers are reflective practitioners who are students of teaching and learning. Providing
numerous frameworks through which to filter our experience encourages intentional and thoughtful
inquiry. Through field placements, service learning, generative questions, and classroom experiences,
students and faculty develop their perspectives about teaching and learning. Critical reflection allows
us to examine content, theory, and practice in ways that transform our practice. We think it is
important to understand and learn how to manage the many polarities inherent in the teaching and
learning process.
Diversity and Equity
Responsive teachers embrace diversity and intentionally work to ensure that all learners, especially
those who for some reason have been marginalized, learn and develop in powerful ways. We
continually reflect on what it means to be a “school in the city.” We recognize that each student is
unique, shaped by culture and experience; therefore, differentiating instruction is essential. The
perspective of multiple intelligences, learning style theory and teaching for understanding help us
differentiate and enable us to provide choice, variety, and flexibility. Responsive teachers believe that
all students can learn. They also have a sense of efficacy and believe that they can help all students
learn.
Leadership
Responsive teachers recognize that becoming a learning leader is a developmental process, which
begins in pre-service education and continues throughout one’s career. Teachers serve as leaders
within the classroom, and with experience, increased confidence, and professional development
become leaders within the school, the district, and the community. Teacher leaders view themselves
as lifelong learners. They become role models committed to their profession as a vocation rather than
a job. Emerging teacher leaders keep student learning at the center of their work while advocating for
instructional innovation, constructivist curricular development, and systemic change.
Master of Arts in Education Conceptual Framework
Teacher leadership is the theme that threads through our graduate licensure and degree completion
program. The Augsburg Education Department believes that teachers are leaders in their classrooms
and should be leaders in their institutions and communities.
The leadership focus plays out in three ways. First, the additional work required in the graduate
versions of the combined undergraduate/graduate courses focuses on providing graduate students
the chance to exercise leadership as well as extend their knowledge beyond the basic requirements.
Second, in the degree completion component, students are required to include coursework focused
on leadership and study aspects of leadership as part of their degree program. Third, the final
project—be it an action research, a leadership application project, or the performance assessment
option—gives students the opportunity to study an issue of concern and, supported by research,
define a means for addressing it.
Three Teacher Leadership Aspirations inform our program. They are as follows.
Aspiration 1: Teacher leaders value learning for personal and professional growth. Teacher
leaders share knowledge effectively with colleagues. We believe that teacher leaders are
comfortable with their knowledge and expertise, neither flaunting it nor hiding it, but sharing it with
other generously. They work to build bridges with a full range of colleagues, but they don’t let
recalcitrant colleagues stop their own development. They see learning as a continuous endeavor and
seek it throughout their careers.
Aspiration 2: Teachers leaders think big—beyond the classroom to the broader context of
education and community. We believe that teacher leaders see systems and the “big picture” and
are able to put their classrooms, schools, and communities into a broader context. They understand
the link between policies, politics, and education and participate in change efforts at the macro and
micro levels. They seek to work with administrators to establish school and district policy that
improves life for everyone. If this involves political action, they are prepared to engage in it. Teacher
leaders also understand that teaching and learning are dynamic and that change within school
systems is an ever-present phenomenon. They are informed decision-makers predisposed to take on
the challenge of change when they think it benefits students, teachers, and/or community.
Aspiration 3: Teacher leaders possess courage and an orientation to action. We believe that
teacher leaders help others not be afraid. They are able to help people to take warranted risks and
step outside their comfort zones. They have the courage to bring people together to see the bigger
picture and then help people get there. Teacher leaders accept both power and accountability. They
understand that responsibility without power diminishes potential for effectiveness. They believe that
accountability is a fair trade for the power to take effective action. They operate from a foundation of
self-efficacy.
Program Overview
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) is designed to provide a teaching license as part of a master’s
degree program. K-12 initial teaching licenses offered at Augsburg include:
• Elementary education (K-6), with or without a middle school content area endorsement in math,
communication arts, social studies, or science. Also available is the pre-primary endorsement to
the elementary license.
• Secondary education (5-12 and K-12) in social studies, communication arts/literature, visual arts,
health, mathematics, music, and physical education; and 9-12 in biology, chemistry, and physics.
* K-12 English as a Second Language
• K-12 Special Education: Emotional and Behavioral Disabilities
• K-12 Special Education: Learning Disabilities
Teachers who are already licensed can work towards the MAE degree through the following four
licensure endorsement options:
* K-12 English as a Second Language
• K-12 Special Education: Emotional and Behavioral Disabilities
• K-12 Special Education: Learning Disabilities
• K-12 Reading
• Pre-Primary
All teachers seeking licensure through Augsburg must take and pass all tests required by the state of
Minnesota for licensure.
The MAE degree is also available without a license but with an education core. See the MAE program
director for details.
Accreditations and Approvals
Augsburg College is accredited by:
• The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools
• National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education
Augsburg College is approved by the Minnesota Board of Teaching.
Program Structure
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program is made up of a core of education licensure courses
coupled with a degree completion option. Courses in the degree completion phase are drawn from the
Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) and graduate courses in education. Most students in the MAE
program pursue a K-12 teaching license as part of their program plan. The MAE degree is also open
to students who do not want a teaching license but do want a background in education and
leadership.
The MAE degree requires 9.0 or 10.0 Augsburg graduate level courses, depending on the degree
completion option. In addition, several courses at the undergraduate level are required for licensure.
Only courses taken at the graduate level apply towards the MAE degree.
Course Credit
A full-credit graduate or undergraduate course (1.0) is equal to four semester credits or six quarter
credits. Each full course offered within the weekend schedule meets for 28 hours with the expectation
of substantial independent study outside of class.
Schedule
The majority of the education courses in the MAE licensure and degree programs are offered through
the weekend schedule. Some education courses and many undergraduate content area courses are
offered on a weekday evening schedule. The MAL degree completion courses are offered primarily
through the weekend schedule. Summer session courses are offered weekdays and weekday
evenings.
The following teaching licenses are available entirely through the weekday evening and weekend

Curriculum— Teaching Licenses
K-6 Elementary Education
This program is designed to prepare teachers for grades K-6. Optional endorsements in middle school
specialty areas of math, science, social studies, and communication arts and in pre-primary can be
pursued along with or separately from the K-6 license. The teaching license and some endorsements
are offered at both undergraduate and graduate levels through a mix of undergraduate courses and
combined graduate and undergraduate courses. Graduate-level licensure coursework (500 and
above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and have been admitted to the
MAE program.
All of the following courses must be taken for K-6 elementary licensure. Up to six courses may be
taken at the graduate (500) level and applied toward the MAE degree.

*Field experience hours are required in these courses. Students spend 20 or more hours per term in
field experiences. These experiences occur in K-6 classrooms during the weekday. If more than one
course with field experience is taken in a given term, field experience requirements expand
accordingly (i.e., two courses with 20 hours of field experience each require a total of 40 hours).
Undergraduate Liberal Arts Requirements
The number of supporting content area courses required for licensure depends upon the courses
completed as part of the bachelor’s degree and/or other coursework. Requirements are determined by
Minnesota licensure standards for specific college-level coursework in math, biology, physics, and
earth science for all students seeking elementary licensure. Specific requirements are on file in the
Education Department.
Minnesota licensure standards allow for optional subject area endorsements in communication
arts/literature, social studies, math, and science. The optional pre-primary endorsement is also
available. Specific requirements for these endorsements are on file in the Education Department.
Previous coursework can be accepted into the licensure program if it meets Minnesota standards and
if a grade of C or better was achieved. The Education Department and the content area departments
determine the courses that are accepted. Transcripts, course descriptions, and course syllabi are
used to make these determinations. Courses that are older than five years are judged on a case-bycase basis. Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is not automatically accepted
into the MAE degree. The program has limits on the amount and type of courses that are accepted.
Grades of B or better are required for transfer consideration. See the MAE program director for
approval of graduate coursework accepted in transfer.

elementary, middle school, and high school. Licenses for grades 5- 12 prepare teachers to teach at
the middle and high school levels. Graduate-level licensure coursework (500 and above) is available
to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and meet MAE admissions criteria.
The following content area majors are offered almost entirely on weekends and weekday evenings:
communication arts/literature, history or economics or psychology or sociology (all for social studies),
art. Students seeking 5–12 licensure in social studies must complete a broad-based core of courses
in the social studies in addition to a social science major. Education courses for these licenses are
also taken during weekends and weekday evenings.
The following content area majors are offered primarily or entirely through the weekday program:
biology, chemistry, physics, health, physical education, music, and mathematics. Students seeking
licensure in any of these areas typically will need to take additional content courses in the weekday
schedule. Students can obtain a 9–12 license in physics, chemistry, or biology and have the option of
adding the 5–8 general science to the 9–12 license. Students also can obtain the 5–8 general science
license without the 9–12 license. Education courses for these licenses are taken during weekends

allows students employed in EBD and/or LD classrooms to fulfill a portion of their special education
field experience requirements while they work. Students not employed in these settings are expected
to complete a significant number of volunteer hours in special education settings. All must complete
field placements or student teaching in EBD and/or LD classrooms across elementary, middle school,

A Greeting from the President
I am pleased to know of your interest in Augsburg College’s exciting and innovative graduate programs. You are part of a
select and discerning group of professionals who seek to find a graduate program that combines an excellent curriculum,
a values-based approach to work, a talented and experienced faculty, and program formats that meet the needs of busy
and successful people. Augsburg College’s graduate-level programs in Business Administration, Education, Leadership,
Nursing, Physician Assistant Studies, and Social Work are distinguished by the opportunities they provide students to expand decision-making and strategic skills. Beginning in the fall of 2010, Augsburg is proud to offer its inaugural doctoral
degree program—the Doctor in Nursing Practice program.
Augsburg College is characterized by a strong mission: Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens,
thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders. The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged
community that is committed to intentional diversity in its life and work. An Augsburg education is defined by excellence in the liberal arts and professional studies, guided by the faith and values of the Lutheran church, and shaped by its
urban and global settings.
For our graduate programs, this mission helps to shape an innovative educational experience that features an expansive
perspective on social responsibility, economic realities, business initiative, and environmental sustainability.
At Augsburg College, we believe that our distinctive educational purpose is to help you, the individual student, find your
calling at work and in the world. The Augsburg graduate programs are designed to offer you quality educational experiences, personal attention, and opportunities to expand your personal and professional talents and skills. We are confident
that our graduates are prepared for leadership in our ever-changing global society, the hallmark of an Augsburg degree.
Sincerely,
Paul C. Pribbenow
President, Augsburg College
Augsburg College I 3
Greetings from the Academic Affairs Office
Welcome to our graduate programs. We are committed to education that prepares people for leadership in their communities and places of work. We believe that the liberal and professional arts and sciences form the best preparation for living in the fast-paced, changing, and complex world of today and tomorrow.
Our locations in the vital metropolitan areas of Minneapolis/St. Paul and Rochester offer exciting and challenging field
experiences for courses that include real-life learning through academic internships, experiential education, and cultural
enrichment. The Twin Cities and Rochester become extended campuses for Augsburg students. Also, the diversity in our
campus community ensures that our graduates are prepared for the range of experiences and perspectives that characterize today’s global environment.
When you join Augsburg you become part of a community that offers lifelong learning opportunities in state-of-the-art
classrooms, with accessible libraries and dedicated faculty and staff. You join a body of experienced people who quickly
form your network of employer connections and career opportunities. We encourage our alumni to become your mentors and build on our city connections through public events, including our convocations and Advent Vespers.
All our programs share distinctive qualities, including our commitment and mission to be of service, with one another
and to our neighbors. We expect our graduates to have their eyes on the world as they develop their identity as global citizens, with a sense of responsibility to participate in socially- and economically-sustainable development. We hope that at
some time during your degree, you’ll explore the opportunities to participate in an international learning experience—for
example, travel seminars to our global campuses in Central America, Mexico, and Namibia, and opportunities to meet
visiting students and faculty members from our partner institutions in Norway, Germany, Finland, and Slovenia. Inspired
by the faith of our Lutheran founders to be inclusive to the early immigrants who came to Augsburg’s doors, we welcome
a diversity of cultures and faiths.
Although each graduate program has its own “neighborhood” and unique features, we encourage interdisciplinary
courses and opportunities for you to study with colleagues across disciplines. We encourage both “horizontal” initiatives—i.e., cross-program collaboration—as well as “vertical” initiatives—engaging our undergraduate students to consider graduate work. This means that sometimes you may be encouraging classmates who are just beginning to imagine a
graduate degree.
We are companions on your journey in fulfilling your dream of a graduate degree and we cannot wait to meet you.
Sincerely,
Barbara A. Farley

About Augsburg College
About Augsburg College
At Augsburg College, we believe that graduate education
should prepare gifted people for positions of leadership in
their communities and places of work. Augsburg graduates
will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major
field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve
problems, act ethically and communicate effectively in a
global world. The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg mission, informed by the liberal and professional arts
and sciences, to serve our neighbors in the heart of the city
with faith-based, ethical values. We welcome students from a
diversity of backgrounds and experiences. Also, our programs
look to the world through international courses and cultural
exchanges.

Mission Statement
Augsburg is enhanced by its global centers in Namibia, Mexico, and Central America. Students can perform research, take
courses, or consult with faculty in those locations to gain new
perspectives on their discipline.
Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens,
thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders.
The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged community, committed to intentional diversity in its life and work.
An Augsburg education is defined by excellence in the liberal
arts and professional studies, guided by the faith and values of
the Lutheran Church, and shaped by our urban and global
settings.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian
Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in Marshall, Wis., and
moved to Minneapolis in 1872. A short history of Augsburg
College can be found at www.augsburg.edu/about/history.html
Today, Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and
dedication of its founders who believed:
• Education should have a solid liberal arts core at the graduate level; this focus centers on the ability to think critically
and broadly about the world and the work we do in it;
• An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in
community and centers of faith;
• The city—with all its excitement, challenges, and diversity—is an unequaled learning environment.
The vision of the College’s work today is lived out in the
phrase, “We believe we are called to serve our neighbor.”
Through common commitments to living faith, active citizenship, meaningful work, and global perspective, Augsburg prepares its students to become effective, ethical citizens in a
complex global society.
Degrees Offered
Augsburg’s undergraduate program of liberal arts and sciences
is offered on both a traditional weekday schedule and a nontraditional weekend and evening schedule. Augsburg offers
Dual degrees:
BA in accounting/MAL—see p. 40
MSW/MBA—see p. 58 and 76
MSW/MA in theology, with Luther Seminary—see p. 75
A Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg’s graduate programs is participation in a community of adult learners. This community
is enriched by the presence of men and women with a variety
of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages students to make use of
all College facilities such as Lindell Library, the Kennedy Center, and the Christensen Center, and to participate in College
activities such as music and dramatic presentations and
athletic events.
Graduate Faculty
The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and
Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence and
commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate
or other terminal degree, and all consider teaching and service
to be the focus of their activity at the College. Faculty are involved in social, professional, and a variety of research activities, but these support and are secondary to their teaching.
Faculty are actively involved in a dynamic faculty development program that introduces them to best practices in teaching and learning techniques and theories.
Augsburg’s small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students. Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.

FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of
1974 as amended, provides certain rights to students regarding their education records. Augsburg College understands
About Augsburg College
that no information other than “directory information” can be
released without the written permission of the student. Students must give permission in writing for educational information to be released to anyone outside of the official
personnel (faculty and administration) at Augsburg. For example, this means that faculty or others cannot write letters of
support/recommendation or nominate students for awards unless explicit written permission is given by the student to release non-“directory information.” It is not sufficient to ask
for letters of recommendation.
In accordance with FERPA, you are notified of the following:
Right to inspect and review education records
You have the right to review and inspect substantially all of
your education records maintained by or at Augsburg College.
You must request to review your education records in writing,
with your signature. The College will respond in a reasonable
time, but no later than 45 days after receiving the request.
Right to request amendment of education records
You have the right to seek to have corrected any parts of an
education record that you believe to be inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of your right to privacy. This includes the right to a hearing to present evidence that the
record should be changed if Augsburg decides not to alter
your education records as you requested.
Right to give permission for disclosure of personally identifiable information
You have the right to be asked and to give Augsburg your permission to disclose personally identifiable information contained in your education records, except to the extent that
FERPA and the regulations regarding FERPA authorize disclosure without your permission.
One exception which permits disclosure without consent is
disclosure to school officials with legitimate education interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in
an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel
and health staff); person or company with whom the College
has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection
agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees, or a student
serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or
grievance committee, or assisting another school official performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education
record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.
carefully the consequences of any decision by you to withhold
directory information. Should you decide to inform Augsburg
College not to release Directory Information, any future request for such information from persons or organizations outside of Augsburg College will be refused.
“Directory information” includes the following:
• The student’s name;
• The student’s address;
• The student’s telephone number;
• The student’s e-mail address;
• The student’s date and place of birth;
• The student’s major and minor field of study;
• The student’s academic class level;
• The student’s enrollment status (FT/HT/LHT);
• The student’s participation in officially recognized activities
and sports;
• The student’s degrees and awards received;
• The weight and height of members of athletic teams;
• The student’s dates of attendance;
• The most recent previous educational agency or institution
attended by the student; and
• The student’s photograph.
Augsburg College will honor your request to withhold all Directory Information but cannot assume responsibility to contact you for subsequent permission to release it. Augsburg
assumes no liability for honoring your instructions that such
information be withheld. The Office of the Registrar must be
notified in writing of your intent to withhold your Directory
Information. If the notice is not received by the registrar prior
to Sept. 15 (or within 10 school days of the start of a subsequent term for a new student), it will be assumed that all Directory Information may be disclosed for the remainder of the
current academic year. A new notice for withholding disclosure must be completed each academic year.
Right to complain to FERPA Office
You have the right to file a complaint with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Ave. S.W., Washington, D.C.,
20202-4605, concerning Augsburg’s failure to comply with
FERPA.
Reporting Educational Information
Letters of reference must be requested in writing and explicitly indicate what information may be reported in the letter.
Right to withhold disclosure of “directory information”
FERPA uses the term “Directory Information” to refer to those
categories of personally identifiable information that may be
released for any purpose at the discretion of Augsburg College
without notification of the request or disclosure to the student.
Under FERPA you have the right to withhold the disclosure of
the directory information listed below. Please consider very

Academic Programs and Policies
Academic Programs and Policies
Academic Calendars
Most of our graduate programs meet on a trimester calendar.
Physician Assistant Studies classes meet on a semester day
schedule.
The official academic calendars for individual programs can
be found at www.augsburg.edu/registrar. All academic calendars are subject to change.
Academic Policies
The College and its faculty subscribe to the Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom as promulgated by the American
Association of University Professors and the Association of
American Colleges.
Academic Honesty
A college is a community of learners whose relationship relies
on trust. Honesty is necessary to preserve the integrity and
credibility of scholarship by the Augsburg College community.
Academic dishonesty, therefore, is not tolerated. As a College
requirement, student course projects, papers, and examinations may include a statement by the student pledging to
abide by the College’s academic honesty policies and to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity. (See Augsburg’s Academic Honesty Policy in the Student Guide at
www.augsburg.edu/studentguide/)
Academic Evaluation
Evaluation of academic performance in each program will be
based on number grades using a 4.0 point scale, where 4.0
achieves highest standards of excellence. See each program for
details of field study and special projects. Students must achieve
a 3.0 GPA in order to graduate; Physician Assistant students
must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
The numeric grade point definition for Graduate Studies is:
4.0 grade points
Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5 grade points
Achieves above acceptable standards
3.0 grade points
Meets acceptable standards
2.5 grade points
Meets minimum standards
2.0–0.0 grade points Unacceptable performance
P
Represents work at 3.0 or higher (not counted in grade
point average)
N No credit (not counted in grade point average)
V Audit
W Withdrawn
I
Incomplete
X In progress, extended beyond term of registration
Withdrawn Status
W—Grade given when a student withdraws from a course
after the deadline without notation on the record
Graduate Catalog I 12
Incomplete (I) Grades
An incomplete grade (I) may be awarded when the instructor
grants permission after determining that a student emergency
may delay completion of coursework. Students who receive
an incomplete grade should be capable of passing the course if
they satisfactorily complete outstanding course requirements.
To receive an incomplete grade, a student must file an Application for Incomplete Grade form with the Office of the Registrar that states the reasons for the request, outlines the work
required to complete the course, and includes the course instructor’s signature. The instructor may stipulate the terms
and conditions that apply to course completion; however, students may not attend the same course (or a portion of the
same course) in a following term with an incomplete grade.
The student must complete the outstanding work in enough
time to allow evaluation of the work by the instructor and the
filing of a grade before the final day of the following academic
term in the student’s program. If the work is not completed by
the specified date of the following academic term, the grade
for the course becomes 0.0.
Academic Probation
Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade
point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be placed on academic probation for the following
term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be restored
in order for a student to be removed from probation. Graduate
students in the Physician Assistan must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
Attendance Policy
Attendance and participation are critical to the success of any
course. Evaluation of the level and quality of participation
may be incorporated into the course grade. We view attendance as a joint commitment of both instructors and students
to our professional development. Each instructor has the authority to specify attendance and participation requirements
to address the needs of particular courses, individual students,
or various learning styles.
Lack of attendance may result in a failing grade and the requirement to repeat the course. Students must notify the professor in advance of any expected absence. In the case of
emergency, when prior notification is not possible, students
must notify the professor of an absence as soon as possible.
Continuation Policy for Thesis or Final Project (effective
in fall 2010)
Following the initial registration term for the final (or summative or capstone) project, students will be automatically
registered for continuation course 999 each trimester for up to
15 trimesters or until a grade for the completion course is
submitted by the project adviser. Continuation course 999
maintains students’ active status in the graduate program, in-
Academic Programs and Policies
cluding library, AugNet, and parking privileges. This registration will result in a Campus Access Fee of $35 (subject to
change as costs increase) per trimester.
Doctor of Nursing Practice—For information about course
credits and contact hours for the Doctor of Nursing program,
see p. 49.
Automatic registration will occur for up to five years or 15
terms. At the end of this time, the course grade will change
from X to N. Students who wish to complete the final project
after receiving a failing grade must meet with the program director to evaluate readmission to the College and program.
Students who are readmitted may need to complete additional
course work and will need to pay full tuition for all additional
courses and to repeat the final project course. If/when the
final project course is completed, the new grade would supersede the previous grade.
Degree Requirements
Students may withdraw from the College, and thus from continuation course 999 and the final project course, at any point
during the continuation period and receive a W notation on
the transcript for the final project course. Following a withdrawal, students are welcome to meet with the program director to evaluate readmission to the College and program.
Students may be subject to additional coursework.
An accounts receivable hold will be placed on the student’s
account if a collegewide $250 unpaid threshold is reached.
The threshold will adjust with the practices of the Student Accounts Office. If a student owes more than the threshold
amount, the registrar’s office will not continue to automatically enroll the student in continuation 999. The registrar’s office and the Student Accounts Office will inform the student,
the program director, and coordinator that the student must
pay the account (including the late fee). At this point coordinators and/or program directors will communicate with the
student and the faculty adviser and, if necessary, request that
the faculty adviser submit a grade change of N. The student
also may elect to withdraw from the College. If the grade
change has not been submitted within one term, the program
director will submit the grade change of N.
This policy is effective as of September 2010. Students will
sign a contract outlining the terms of the continuation policy,
which will be kept on file with the program and in the Office
of the Registrar. Accumulated charges stand for current students, but beginning in fall 2010 students will be charged $35
per term. The Enrollment Center will work with students, as
needed, who are currently in the continuation phase and who
have accumulated a debt higher than the $250 threshold.
Course credit and contact hours
A full credit course (1.0) is equal to four semester credits or
six quarter credits. Each full course on the trimester schedule
meets for approximately 28 contact hours (MSW trimesters
meet for 32 hours, and the PA weekday semester schedule is
approximately 45 hours) with the expectation of substantial
independent and group study offered through the web-based
electronic course management system.
To be conferred the graduate degree, all graduate students
must achieve the following:
• Successful completion of all required courses
• A cumulative GPA of 3.0; Physician Assistant students
must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
• Successful completion of all degree requirements within
the stipulated period of matriculation or a signed continuation agreement with Augsburg College.
Dismissal from the College
A student whose GPA falls below the required GPA for his/her
graduate program (3.0 in most programs) in two or more
terms may be subject to probation or dismissal. A plan for the
student to continue in the program may be worked out with
the program director.
Students may also be dismissed for violation of standards of
behavior defined by their profession, their program, or the
College.
Dismissal Appeals Process
A student may appeal a program’s dismissal decision using the
College’s program dismissal appeals process. Appeals are limited to procedural errors that the student can demonstrate
negatively affected the outcome.
The student initiates the appeal process by submitting a hard
copy of the statement of appeal to the Assistant Vice President
of Academic Affairs and Dean of Graduate Studies (AVP-Graduate Studies); email is not acceptable. The statement must
identify each procedural error and state how each error negatively affected the outcome. The statement of appeal will be
the only basis of the student’s appeal. The AVP-Graduate
Studies must receive the student’s statement of appeal within
14 calendar days of the date on the department’s written notification of dismissal.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the statement
of appeal to the program chair/director. The program must
submit a response to the student’s statement of appeal within
15 business days of the date that the statement was received
by the AVP-Graduate Studies’ office. A hard copy of the program’s response should be submitted to the AVP-Graduate
Studies. The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the
program’s response to the student.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will convene the Program Dismissal Appeals Committee, which will include the AVP-Graduate Studies as a non-voting chair and three program faculty
members (one from programs not named in the appeal: Social
Work, Education, Physician Assistant Studies, Nursing, Business, Leadership).
Augsburg College I 13
Academic Programs and Policies
The Program Dismissal Appeals Committee will schedule its
hearing within 15 business days of receipt of the program’s
statement of response. The Committee will meet with the student and a program representative to review the procedures
and ask questions of both the student and the program representative. The student and program representative may each
bring a third party to the review meeting (limited to an Augsburg College faculty member, staff member, or student). The
role of the third party representative is to provide support to
the student or the program representative, not to serve as an
advocate during the meeting.

Students who enroll in courses but later decide not to attend
must formally drop their courses through the registrar’s office
prior to the start of classes to avoid being charged for those
courses. Students who do not properly drop courses will be
responsible for the tuition, regardless of non-attendance.
Courses may be dropped or withdrawn online through
AugNet Records and Registration or in person at the Enrollment Center during hours of operation. If you need assistance
with this, contact your program faculty at least two days in
advance of the start of classes.
Independent Study
Students may request to complete an independent study
course as an addition to the required coursework. A faculty
sponsor is required for an independent study project, and
project proposals must be approved by the program director
in order to receive credit. Normally, independent study may
not be used as a replacement for a standard course offered in
the curriculum, with the exception of the general elective (if
approved). A special independent study registration form is
required and is available at the Enrollment Center.
Terms of Non-attendance
Students who interrupt their program enrollment for longer
than one semester or three trimesters must readmit to the
College and program to resume their degree program. For an
absence of any length, students should coordinate with their
program director prior to leaving. Due to a variety of program
schedules and cohorts for some degrees, it is required that
students meet with their adviser and obtain the advice of their
director.
Evaluation of Transfer Credit
Students may petition the program director for transfer credit
to apply to program requirements. The transfer of credit will
be evaluated on an individual basis. Students will be asked to
provide appropriate documentation regarding previous
coursework, including but not limited to an official transcript,
course description, and syllabus. In order to be considered for
transfer, a course must be from a regionally-accredited college
or university and graded 3.0/B or better. Courses must have
been taken at the graduate level and course content must be
comparable to program requirements at Augsburg.
Graduate Catalog I 14
The maximum number of course credits that can be transferred to these program is as follows:
Master of Arts in Education (2.0)
Master of Arts in Leadership (2.0)
Master of Arts in Nursing (3.0)
Master of Business Administration (6.0)
Master of Science, Physician Assistant Studies (Contact program coordinator)
Master of Social Work (8.0)
Augsburg course credits are equivalent to four semester
hours or six quarter hours. Therefore, transfer credits that are
reported to Augsburg as semester or quarter hours are converted to Augsburg course credits by dividing by four or six
respectively.
Courses and credits that are accepted in transfer are recorded
on the student’s transcript. Grades and gradepoints from
other institutions are not transferred to Augsburg and are not
included in the student’s cumulative grade point average.
Student Rights
The College has adopted a statement of student rights and responsibilities and has provided for due process in the matter
of disciplinary action, grievances, and grade appeal, as outlined in the Augsburg Student Guide, at
www.augsburg.edu/studentguide. Students have a right to experience education without discrimination.
Grievance Procedures Involving Augsburg College Faculty Members and Students
Part I—Introduction/Preface
Augsburg College is committed to a policy of treating fairly all
members of the college community in regard to their personal
and professional concerns. However, times do occur in which
students think they have been mistreated. This procedure is
provided in order to ensure that students are aware of the way
in which their problems with faculty members can be resolved
informally and to provide a more formal conciliation process
when needed. Each student must be given adequate opportunity to bring problems to the attention of the faculty with the
assurance that each will be given fair treatment. The faculty
member must be fully informed of the allegations and given
an opportunity to respond to them in a fair and reasonable
manner.
Definition of Grievance
A grievance is defined as dissatisfaction occurring when a student believes that any conduct or condition affecting her/him
is unjust or inequitable, or creates unnecessary hardship. Such
grievances include, but are not limited to a violation, misinterpretation, or inequitable application of an academic rule, regulation, or policy of the College or prejudicial, capricious, or
manifestly unjust academic evaluation.
Academic Programs and Policies
College policies and procedures that do not come within the
scope of the Grievance Procedures are the sexual harassment
policy, the sexual violence policy, the Committee on Financial
Petitions, Discipline Process, and Academic Standing.
Time Limits
Time limits will include only business days (M–F) for the program in which the student was enrolled. (Weekends, and vacation days are not included; summer may not be included
depending on the student’s program.)
Part II—Informal Process
It is always the student’s responsibility to know these procedures and timelines and to follow them.
A. Any time a student feels that she/he has been mistreated by
a faculty member, the student should contact the faculty
member to discuss the problem and attempt to resolve it.
B. If no mutually satisfactory solution can be reached with the
faculty member or if, in unusual circumstances, the student
prefers not to confer with the faculty member, the student
should discuss the problem with the department chairperson
of the faculty member and attempt resolution of the problem.
C. If the problem cannot be resolved in discussions with the
faculty member or department chairperson, or if the faculty
member and the department chairperson are the same individual, the student may contact the vice president of academic
affairs and dean of the College.
• In unusual circumstances, the time limit may be extended
by the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the
College. A grievant or respondent must submit a written
request for such extension before the end of the time limit.
If the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the
College thinks the extension is warranted, the Dean will
notify all concerned persons in writing.
E. If the grievance has been resolved, either by agreement or
by expiration of the time limits, a copy of the informal grievance and statements of the resolution will be kept by the vice
president of academic affairs and dean of the College for one
year. Neither a copy of nor any reference to the grievance will
be placed in the personnel file of the respondent.
If these informal discussions do not resolve the problem to
the satisfaction of the student, a more formal conciliation procedure is available in Part III of this document. Note: A student must file a written grievance, per below, within five days
after completion of the informal process
Part III—Formal Process Preface
If a student has a grievance with a faculty member that has
not been resolved through the Informal Grievance Process described in Part II of this document, the student may then seek
resolution through formal procedures.
For a complete copy of the procedures, contact the dean’s office, Academic Affairs.
D. The student must begin the Informal Grievance process
within 15 days of the conduct giving rise to the grievance, by
submitting an Informal Grievance Form to the vice president
of academic affairs and dean of the College.
• The time limit to begin the Informal Grievance process for
a grade appeal will be 30 days from the last published finals
date for the relevant term. It is the responsibility of the student to maintain a correct and current address on file with
the registrar.
• If the student could not reasonably be expected to be aware
of the conduct when it occurred, the student will have 15
days to file the grievance from the date on which the student could reasonably be expected to be aware of the conduct or condition that is the basis for the grievance. It is
the responsibility of the student to establish the reasonableness of such non–awareness. The vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College will determine if this
paragraph applies to a grievant.
• The vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College and the student must ensure the informal process is
completed in 20 days. (See Part I for definition of time
limits.)

Proof of English Competency
The TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is required for all students for whom English is a secondary language, except those who have a four-year degree from a U.S.
institution with a minimum of two years of successful academic work in the U.S. (seven or more courses).
In order to receive an F-1 visa, federal regulations require international applicants to be sufficiently proficient in English
to pursue a full course of study.
To fulfill this requirement Augsburg graduate programs require international applicants to submit an official score report from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)
with a minimum score of 100 (iBT), 250 (CBT) or 600 (PBT).
The TOEFL is waived for applicants who have a four-year degree from a U.S. institution with a minimum of two years of
successful academic work completed in the U.S. (seven or
more courses).
Graduate Catalog I 16
Admission of International Students
Augsburg College graduate programs encourage qualified applicants from other countries to apply.
An F-1 student is a nonimmigrant who is pursuing a “full
course of study” to achieve a specific educational or professional objective at an academic institution in the United States
that has been designated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to offer courses of study to such students, and
has been enrolled in SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System).
A student acquires F-1 status using form I-20, issued by a
DHS-approved school through SEVIS. Status is acquired in
one of two ways: 1) if the student is abroad, by entering the
United States with the I-20 and an F-1 visa obtained at a U.S.
consulate, or 2) if the student is already in the United States
and not currently in F-1 status, by sending the I-20 to USCIS
(United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) with an
application for change of nonimmigrant status.
A student who is maintaining valid F-1 status may transfer
from another DHS-approved school to Augsburg by following
the transfer procedures set forth in the F-1 regulations.
In addition to fulfilling all general admission requirements for
a particular graduate program, prospective F-1 students must
also comply with the following:
A. Foreign Credential Evaluation
Augsburg requires foreign credential evaluation for any transcript(s) from an institution outside of the United States. This
evaluation should include the following:
• Analysis of credentials—to determine if your degree is
equivalent to an accredited U.S. bachelor’s degree.
• Course-by-course evaluation—to show your complete
course listing with credit values and grades received for
each course.
• Calculation of grade point average—to demonstrate your
cumulative grade point average using the standard U.S.
grading system, i.e., A=4.0, B=3.0, C=2.0, D=1.0, F=0.0.
• Translation to English (if applicable)
Graduate Admissions
The evaluation report must be sent directly to Augsburg’s
Adult and Graduate Admissions Office. Refer to World Education Services at http://wes.org for direction on transcript evaluation.
B. Proof of Financial Support
International applicants must provide reliable documentation
that they have financial resources adequate to meet expenses
for the duration of their academic program, which include tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, health insurance, personal expenses, and living expenses for
dependents (if applicable).
Funds may come from any dependable source, including
scholarships, fellowships, sponsoring agencies, personal
funds, or funds from the student’s family. Documentation of
scholarships and fellowships may be in the form of an official
award letter from the school or sponsoring agency; documentation of personal or family funds should be on bank letterhead stationery, or in the form of a legally binding affidavit.
Government Form I-134, Affidavit of Support, or Augsburg’s
Financial Sponsorship form can be used to document support
being provided by a U.S. citizen or U.S. legal permanent resident. All financial documents such as bank statements must
be dated within three months prior to the date of application.
Health Insurance
All F-1 international students and their dependents (if applicable) are required to have adequate health insurance coverage for the duration of their program. International students
will be enrolled in the Augsburg international student plan
unless they fill out a waiver verifying proof of coverage
through an alternative provider for the same period.

attended classes. All refunds of charges will be applied to the
student account and all adjustments for aid, loans, fines, deposits, etc. will be made before eligibility for a cash refund of
any resulting credit balance is determined. Allow two weeks
for a refund.
The refund is a percentage of the full tuition charged, not a
percentage of any deposit paid toward tuition, e.g. deposits
made under the employer reimbursement payment plan.

Master of Arts in Education
Master of Arts in Education
We are pleased with your interest in the Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program. Augsburg has a long history in
teacher education with alumni of our programs teaching throughout Minnesota and elsewhere. We know that Augsburg
College is an excellent choice for you to pursue your teaching dreams and goals—and here’s why.
OUR PHILOSOPHY The Education Department program themes include relationships, reflection and inquiry, diversity
and equity, and leadership. You can read about each theme on the following page, but for the MAE program, I want to
highlight one of the program themes—leadership. As this program theme suggests, we expect our students to leave our
programs as responsive, knowledgeable teachers prepared to exercise leadership in the classroom and, eventually, the
school and community.
Our urban setting provides yet another dimension to our programs through a combination of course content, field experiences, and classroom instructors. Our goal is that students will leave our programs as collaborative and capable teachers
committed to educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
OUR FACULTY Augsburg faculty members who teach in the MAE program are a mix of full-time and adjunct instructors,
all of whom have K-12 teaching experience. Many adjunct instructors are currently teaching in K-12 settings; all fulltime faculty members are frequent visitors to K-12 settings through student teaching and field experience supervision,
volunteer work, and/or in-service education. We understand the importance of what we do and what you hope to do. We
value good teaching and, most especially, we value good teachers.
OUR ACCESSIBILITY We realize that although teaching is your dream, your reality most likely includes work, family, and
personal responsibilities. Because we understand the demands adult students face, we offer flexible scheduling. A majority of licensure and graduate-level courses are taught in the evenings and weekends to allow you to manage these responsibilities while pursuing your goals. You will need to be available during the weekday for the challenge and responsibility
of field experiences, but education coursework is accessible through the weekend and evening schedules.
As a student in Augsburg’s Master of Arts in Education licensure and degree program, you will find yourself among interesting students and dedicated professors who believe that all children deserve a good, highly qualified teacher—the
teacher you can become.

Master of Arts in Education
Education Department Mission
The mission of the Augsburg Education Department is to develop responsive, knowledgeable teachers committed to educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
Program Themes
Responsive, knowledgeable teachers understand the dynamic
interaction among relationships, reflection and inquiry, diversity and equity, and leadership. These four interrelated program themes provide lenses through which we filter our
practice.
Relationships
Learning is relational and communal. Responsive teachers create significant relationships with their students, colleagues,
and community partners by developing learning communities.
These nurturing learning communities provide a safe, trustworthy place where challenging and engaging questions can
be considered. We model the kinds of learning communities
that we expect our graduates to create. We share with our students a learning model that connects content, theory, and
practice in an ongoing cycle. Students and their learning are
the focus for responsive teachers. Therefore we embrace and
foster a progressive and constructivist orientation.
Reflection and Inquiry
Responsive teachers are reflective practitioners who are students of teaching and learning. Providing numerous frameworks through which to filter our experience encourages
intentional and thoughtful inquiry. Through field placements,
service learning, generative questions, and classroom experiences, students and faculty develop their perspectives about
teaching and learning. Critical reflection allows us to examine
content, theory, and practice in ways that transform our practice. We think it is important to understand and learn how to
manage the many polarities inherent in the teaching and
learning process.
Diversity and Equity
Responsive teachers embrace diversity and intentionally work
to ensure that all learners, especially those who for some reason have been marginalized, learn and develop in powerful
ways. We continually reflect on what it means to be a “school
in the city.” We recognize that each student is unique, shaped
by culture and experience; therefore, differentiating instruction is essential. The perspective of multiple intelligences,
learning style theory and teaching for understanding help us
differentiate and enable us to provide choice, variety, and flexibility. Responsive teachers believe that all students can learn.
They also have a sense of efficacy and believe that they can
help all students learn.
Leadership
Responsive teachers recognize that becoming a learning leader
is a developmental process, which begins in pre-service edu-
cation and continues throughout one’s career. Teachers serve
as leaders within the classroom, and with experience, increased confidence, and professional development become
leaders within the school, the district, and the community.
Teacher leaders view themselves as lifelong learners. They become role models committed to their profession as a vocation
rather than a job. Emerging teacher leaders keep student
learning at the center of their work while advocating for instructional innovation, constructivist curricular development,
and systemic change.
Master of Arts in Education Conceptual
Framework
Teacher leadership is the theme that threads through our
graduate licensure and degree completion programs. The
Augsburg Education Department believes that teachers are
leaders in their classrooms and should be leaders in their institutions and communities.
The leadership focus plays out in three ways. First, the additional work required in the graduate versions of the combined
undergraduate/graduate courses focuses on providing graduate students the chance to exercise leadership as well as extend their knowledge beyond the basic requirements. Second,
in the degree completion component, students are required to
include coursework focused on leadership and study aspects
of leadership as part of their degree program. Third, the final
project—be it an action research, a leadership application
project, or the performance assessment course—gives students the opportunity to study an issue of concern and, supported by research, define a means for addressing it.
Program Overview
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) is designed to provide
a teaching license as part of a master’s degree program. K-12
initial teaching licenses offered at Augsburg include:
• Elementary education (K-6), with or without a middle
school specialty area endorsement in math, communication
arts, social studies, or science. Also available is the pre-primary endorsement to the elementary license.
• Secondary education (5-12 and K-12) in social studies,
communication arts/literature, visual arts, health, mathematics, music, and physical education; and 9-12 in biology,
chemistry, and physics.
• K-12 special education, emotional and behavioral disabilities
• K-12 special education, learning disabilities
Teachers who are already licensed can work towards the MAE
degree through the following four licensure endorsement options:
• Pre-Kindergarten endorsement
• K-12 special education: emotional and behavioral disabilities
• K-12 special education: learning disabilities
• K-12 reading endorsement (This program is under revision.
Consult the Education Department for current status.)
Augsburg College I 21
Master of Arts in Education
All teachers seeking licensure through Augsburg must take
and pass all tests required by the state of Minnesota for licensure.
The MAE degree is also available without a license but with
an education core.
Accreditations and Approvals
Augsburg College is accredited by:
• The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools
• National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education
Augsburg College is approved by the Minnesota Board of
Teaching.
For a complete list of accreditations, approvals, and memberships, see page 9.
area endorsements, 5-12 social studies, 5-12 communication
arts, and K-12 art.
Additional licenses in the following areas are available
through a combination of weekday, weekday evening, and
weekend schedules: biology, chemistry, health, mathematics,
music, physical education, and physics. For these licenses, the
education and degree completion courses are taken during the
weekend and weekday evenings while some if not all of the
content area courses are taken during the weekday.
The weekend schedule is comprised of three trimesters spread
from early September through late June. In general, classes are
held every other weekend. The weekday schedule is comprised of two semesters spread from early September through
late April. Classes offered during the weekday meet two or
three times per week. Classes offered jointly between weekday
and weekend meet on a weekly basis in the evening. The official academic calendars can be found at
www.augsburg.edu/registrar.
Program Structure
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program is made up
of a core of education licensure courses coupled with a degree
completion option. Courses in the degree completion phase
are drawn from the Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) and
graduate courses in education. Most students in the MAE program pursue a K-12 teaching license as part of their program
plan. The MAE degree is also open to students who do not
want a teaching license but do want a background in education and leadership.
The MAE degree requires 9.0 or 10.0 Augsburg graduate level
courses, depending on the degree completion option. In addition, several courses at the undergraduate level are required
for licensure. Only courses taken at the graduate level apply
towards the MAE degree.
Course Credit
A full-credit graduate or undergraduate course (1.0) is equal
to four semester credits or six quarter credits. Each full course
offered within the weekend schedule meets for 28 hours with
the expectation of substantial independent study outside of
class.
Schedule
The majority of the education courses in the MAE licensure
and degree programs are offered through the weekend schedule. Some education courses and many undergraduate content
area courses are offered on a weekday evening schedule. The
MAL degree completion courses are offered primarily through
the weekend schedule. Summer session courses are offered
weekdays and weekday evenings.
The following teaching licenses are available entirely
through the weekday evening and weekend schedule: elementary education, middle school and preprimary specialty

Undergraduate Liberal Arts Requirements
The number of supporting content area courses required for
licensure depends upon the courses completed as part of the
bachelor’s degree and/or other coursework. Requirements are
determined by Minnesota licensure standards for specific college-level coursework in math, biology, physics, and earth science for all students seeking elementary licensure. Specific
requirements are on file in the Education Department.
Minnesota licensure standards allow for optional subject area
endorsements in communication arts/literature, social studies,
math, and science. The optional pre-K endorsement is also
available. Specific requirements for these endorsements are on
file in the Education Department.
Previous coursework can be accepted into the licensure program if it meets Minnesota standards and if a grade of C or
better was achieved. The Education Department and the content area departments determine the courses that are accepted.
Transcripts, course descriptions, and course syllabi are used to
make these determinations. Courses that are older than five
years are judged on a case-by-case basis. Graduate coursework
accepted into the licensure program is not automatically accepted into the MAE degree. The program has limits on the
amount and type of courses that are accepted. Grades of B or
better are required for transfer consideration. See the MAE
program director for approval of graduate coursework accepted in transfer.

Classroom
K-12 and 5-12 Secondary Education
K-12 and 5-12 licensures in several content areas are offered
through a combination of graduate and undergraduate coursework. K-12 licenses prepare teachers to teach a content area
across elementary, middle school, and high school. Licenses
for grades 5- 12 prepare teachers to teach at the middle and
high school levels. Graduate-level licensure coursework (500
and above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and meet MAE admissions criteria.
The following content area majors are offered almost entirely
on weekends and weekday evenings: communication arts/literature, history or economics or psychology or sociology (all
for social studies), art. Students seeking 5–12 licensure in social studies must complete a broad-based core of courses in
the social studies in addition to a social science major. Education courses for these licenses are also taken during weekends
and weekday evenings.
The following content area majors are offered primarily or entirely through the weekday program: biology, chemistry,
physics, health, physical education, music, and mathematics.
Students seeking licensure in any of these areas will likely
need to take additional content courses in the weekday schedule. Students can obtain a 9–12 license in physics, chemistry,
or biology and have the option of adding the 5–8 general science to the 9–12 license. Students also can obtain the 5–8
general science license without the 9–12 license. Education
courses for these licenses are taken during weekends and
weekday evenings.

The MAE program with licensure in special education is based
on an innovative internship model that allows students employed in EBD and/or LD classrooms to fulfill a portion of
their special education field experience requirements while
they work. Students not employed in these settings are expected to complete a significant number of volunteer hours in
special education settings. All must complete field placements
or student teaching in EBD and/or LD classrooms across elementary, middle school, and high school. Specific information
on field experience requirements is available from the Education Department.
Also available is the Naadamaadiwin Tribal Special Education Cohort—This graduate licensure program in Special Education: EBD/LD is designed and taught from an American
Indian perspective. It is offered in collaboration with the University of Minnesota-Duluth as a hybrid (partly face-to-face
and partly online) cohort program. The licensure courses can
be applied towards the MAE degree. See the Education Department and www.augsburg/edu/mae/academics/ais_focus.html
for more information. The course descriptions are
included below.
The EBD/LD licensure programs are offered through the
weekend trimester schedule. The Naadamaadiwin Tribal Special Education Cohort program is offered through the semester schedule.

A Greeting from the President
I am pleased to know of your interest in Augsburg College’s exciting and innovative graduate programs. You are part of a

curriculum, a values-based approach to work, a talented and experienced faculty, and program formats that meet the
needs of busy and successful people. Augsburg College’s graduate-level programs in Business Administration, Creative
Writing, Education, Leadership, Nursing, Physician Assistant Studies, and Social Work are distinguished by the
opportunities they provide students to expand decision-making and strategic skills.
Augsburg College is characterized by a strong mission: Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens,
thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders. The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged
community that is committed to intentional diversity in its life and work. An Augsburg education is defined by excellence
in the liberal arts and professional studies, guided by the faith and values of the Lutheran church, and shaped by its
urban and global settings.
For our graduate programs, this mission helps to shape an innovative educational experience that features an expansive
perspective on social responsibility, economic realities, business initiative, and environmental sustainability.
At Augsburg College, we believe that our distinctive educational purpose is to help you find your calling at work and in
the world. Augsburg graduate programs are designed to offer you quality educational experiences, personal attention,
and opportunities to expand your personal and professional talents and skills. We are confident that our graduates are

Greetings from the Academic Affairs Office
Welcome to our graduate studies at Augsburg College. We are committed to education that prepares people for
leadership in their communities and places of work. We believe that the liberal and professional arts and sciences form
the best preparation for living in the fast-paced, changing, and complex world of today and tomorrow.
Our locations in the vital metropolitan areas of Minneapolis/St. Paul and Rochester offer exciting and challenging field
experiences for courses that include real-life learning through academic internships, experiential education, and cultural
enrichment. The Twin Cities and Rochester become extended campuses for Augsburg students. Also, the diversity in our
campus community ensures that our graduates are prepared for the range of experiences and perspectives that
characterize today’s global environment.
When you join Augsburg you become part of a community that offers lifelong learning opportunities in state-of-the-art
physical and online classrooms with accessible libraries and dedicated faculty and staff. You join a body of experienced
people who quickly form your network of employer connections and career opportunities. We encourage our alumni to
become your mentors and build on our city connections through public events, including our convocations and Advent
Vespers.
All of our graduate programs share distinctive qualities, including our commitment and mission to be of service, with
one another and to our neighbors. We expect our graduates to have their eyes on the world as they develop their
identity as global citizens, with a sense of responsibility to participate in socially- and economically-sustainable
development. We hope that at some time during your degree, you’ll explore the opportunities to participate in an
international learning experience—for example, travel seminars to our global campuses in Central America, Mexico, and
Namibia, and opportunities to meet visiting students and faculty members from our partner institutions in Norway,
Germany, Finland, and Slovenia. Inspired by the faith of our Lutheran founders to be inclusive to the early immigrants
who came to Augsburg’s doors, we welcome a diversity of cultures and faiths.
Although each graduate program has its own “neighborhood” and unique features, we encourage interdisciplinary
courses and opportunities for you to study with colleagues across disciplines. We encourage both “horizontal”
initiatives—i.e., cross-program collaboration—as well as “vertical” initiatives—engaging our undergraduate students to
consider graduate work. This means that sometimes you may be encouraging classmates who are just beginning to
imagine a graduate degree.
We are companions on your journey in fulfilling your dream of a graduate degree and we cannot wait to meet you.
Sincerely,
Lori A. Peterson
Assistant Vice President of Academic Affairs and Dean of Graduate and Professional Studies

About Augsburg
At Augsburg College, we believe that graduate education should prepare gifted people for positions of leadership in
their communities and places of work. Augsburg graduates will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major
field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve problems, act ethically and communicate effectively in a global
world. The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg mission, informed by the liberal and professional arts and
sciences, to serve our neighbors in the heart of the city with faith-based, ethical values. We welcome students from a
diversity of backgrounds and experiences. Also, our programs look to the world through international courses and
cultural exchanges.
Mission Statement
Students who graduate from Augsburg are well prepared to make a difference in the world. They stand as testaments to
the College motto, “Education for Service,” and mission:
Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible
leaders. The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged community that is committed to intentional diversity in its
life and work. An Augsburg education is defined by excellence in the liberal arts and professional studies, guided by the
faith and values of the Lutheran Church, and shaped by its urban and global settings.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith
presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in Marshall, WI, and
moved to Minneapolis in 1872. A short history of Augsburg College can be found at www.augsburg.edu/about/history.
Today, Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of its founders who believed:
• Education should have a solid liberal arts core at the graduate level; this focus centers on the ability to think critically
and broadly about the world and the work we do in it.
• An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community and centers of faith.
• The city—with all its excitement, challenges, and diversity—is an unequaled learning environment.
The vision of the College’s work today is lived out in the phrase, “We believe we are called to serve our neighbor.”
Through common commitments to living faith, active citizenship, meaningful work, and global perspective, Augsburg
prepares its students to become effective, ethical citizens in a complex global society.

A Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg’s graduate programs is participation in a community of adult learners. This community
is enriched by the presence of men and women with a variety of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of
community interaction, Augsburg encourages students to make use of all College facilities such as Lindell Library, the
Kennedy Center, and the Christensen Center, and to participate in College activities such as music and dramatic
presentations and athletic events.
Graduate Faculty
The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence and
commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate or other terminal degree, and all consider teaching and
service to be the focus of their activity at the College. Faculty are involved in social, professional, and a variety of
research activities, but these support and are secondary to their teaching. Faculty are actively involved in a dynamic
faculty development program that introduces them to best practices in teaching and learning techniques and theories.
Augsburg’s small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students. Faculty act as
academic advisors and participate regularly in campus activities.

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), as amended, provides certain rights to students
regarding their education records. Each year Augsburg College is required to give notice of the various rights accorded to
students pursuant to FERPA. In accordance with FERPA, you are notified of the following:
Right to inspect and review education records
You have the right to review and inspect substantially all of your education records maintained by or at Augsburg
College. The student must request to review their education records in writing with their signature. The College will
respond in a reasonable time, but no later than 45 days after receiving the request.
Right to request amendment of education records
You have the right to seek to have corrected any parts of an education record that you believe to be inaccurate,
misleading, or otherwise in violation of your right to privacy. This includes the right to a hearing to present evidence that
the record should be changed if Augsburg decides not to alter your education records according to your request.
Right to give permission for disclosure of personally identifiable information
You have the right to be asked and to give Augsburg your permission to disclose personally identifiable information
contained in your education records, except to the extent that FERPA and the regulations regarding FERPA authorize
disclosure without your permission. One such exception which permits disclosure without consent is for disclosure to
school officials who have legitimate education interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in an
10

and health staff); person or company with whom the College has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection
agent); a person serving on the board of regents, or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or
grievance committee, or assisting another school official performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate
educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional
responsibility.
Right to withhold disclosure of “directory information”
FERPA uses the term “Directory Information” to refer to those categories of personally identifiable information that may
be released for any purpose at the discretion of Augsburg College without notification of the request or disclosure to the
student.
Under FERPA you have the right to withhold the disclosure of the directory information listed below. Please consider
very carefully the consequences of any decision by you to withhold directory information. Should you decide to inform
Augsburg College not to release Directory Information, any future request for such information from persons or
organizations outside of Augsburg College will be refused.

Graduate Admissions
All graduate programs require students to have a bachelor’s degree from a regionally-accredited four-year institution or
an equivalent degree from outside the US.
All graduate students must submit completed applications. Each graduate program also has additional program
requirements, which may include coursework, professional experience, testing, etc. See the program sections for these
additional requirements.
Please refer to each individual program’s catalog section or the Graduate Admission website (below) for additional
instructions.
For detailed instructions on applying to graduate programs, refer to the Graduate Admissions website at
www.augsburg.edu/grad/.
Readmission
Graduate students who have not registered for courses at Augsburg College for two or more semesters, must apply for
readmission through the Registrar’s Office to resume attendance. Students who have attended other institutions during
their absence from Augsburg must have an official transcript sent from each institution to the Registrar’s Office.
Returning students do not pay the application fee.
The last day to receive approval for readmission to the College and register for classes is one business day prior to the
start of the term. Pending approval by the graduate program, students who left on probation or who were dismissed
from the College must have their readmission application and file reviewed by the program director. (Please consult
with individual programs for information regarding readmission process).
Special Student Admission
Students who are non-degree-seeking, but wish to enroll for academic credit in courses within a graduate degree
program, may be considered for admission as special students (non-degree). Special students (non-degree) can enroll on
a space-available basis. Registration dates are included in the College’s Academic Calendar. Admission requires program
director approval, and the student must be in good standing at all previously attended institutions.
To be considered for admission as a special student (non-degree), the items listed below must be submitted to the
Admissions Office. Some programs may have additional requirements.
• Completed special-status application for admission
• An official transcript of undergraduate and/or last degree earned. A bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited
institution is the minimum requirement for admission. Students who have earned a degree outside the US must
have their transcript evaluated to confirm it is equivalent to a US bachelor’s degree or greater.
If a non-degree seeking student is pursuing regular admission status into the program; he or she should submit an
application requesting regular admission to that program and submit the additional materials needed for regular
admission to that program. Special student status is conferred for only one term of enrollment. Additional terms require
reapplication as a special student (non-degree). Students may count up to 6-8 semester credits earned as a special
student (non-degree) toward an Augsburg College degree with approval of the program director.
International Students Admission
Augsburg College graduate programs encourage qualified applicants from other countries to apply.
An F-1 student is a nonimmigrant who is pursuing a “full course of study” to achieve a specific educational or
professional objective at an academic institution in the United States that has been designated by the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) to offer courses of study to such students, and has been enrolled in SEVIS (Student and
Exchange Visitor Information System).
A student acquires F-1 status using form I-20, issued by a DHS-approved school through SEVIS. Status is acquired in one
of two ways:
13
• If the student is abroad, by entering the United States with the I-20 and an F-1 visa obtained at a US consulate.
• If the student is already in the United States and not currently in F-1 status, by sending the I-20 to USCIS (United
States Citizenship and Immigration Services) with an application for change of nonimmigrant status.
A student who is maintaining valid F-1 status may transfer from another DHS-approved school to Augsburg by following
the transfer procedures set forth in the F-1 regulations.
In addition to fulfilling all general admission requirements for a particular graduate program, prospective F-1 students
must also comply with the following:

Proof of Financial Support
International applicants must provide reliable documentation that they have financial resources adequate to meet
expenses for the duration of their academic program, which include tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and
board, health insurance, personal expenses, and living expenses for dependents (if applicable).

permanent resident. All financial documents such as bank statements must be dated within three months prior to the
date of application.
Health Insurance

Payment Options
Augsburg College offers payment plan options for all students. Information about payment plans is available online at
www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/payment-plans-and-discounts/.
Financial Aid
All students who wish to be considered for financial assistance must establish financial aid eligibility on an annual basis.
This includes completing the application process as outlined below and making satisfactory academic progress. In order
to maintain eligibility in financial aid programs, students must make satisfactory academic progress toward the
attainment of their degree or certificate as stipulated in the College catalog and as published on the Academic Progress
Standards for Financial Aid Recipients webpage, www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/sap-policy/.
Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg may be a combination of grants and loans. The College cooperates with
federal, state, church, and private agencies in providing various aid programs. During the 2012-2013 academic year,
more than eight out of ten students at Augsburg received financial assistance.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) helps determine the amount of assistance for which a student is
eligible. This analysis takes into account such family financial factors as current income, assets, number of dependent
family members, other educational expenses, retirement needs, and special considerations.
How to Apply
To be considered for the maximum amount of aid, students must apply for financial aid by May 1st. Steps to apply can be
found online www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/graduate-financial-aid/ and are updated annually as federal and state
processes change.
16
What Happens Next?
Once all documents are received, we review the financial aid application to determine financial aid eligibility for all
available programs. A financial aid award letter will be sent to the student. This letter details the financial aid award and
includes information regarding federal and private loan programs (students must complete a loan application to receive
loan funds).
Types of Aid
A student applying for aid from Augsburg applies for assistance in general rather than for a specific scholarship or grant
(except as noted). The various forms of aid available are listed here for information only.
In addition to aid administered by Augsburg College, students are urged to investigate the possibility of scholarships and
grants that might be available in their own communities. It is worthwhile to check with churches, the company or
business employing parents or spouses, high schools, service clubs, and fraternal organizations for information on aid
available to students who meet their requirements. In addition to these sources, some students are eligible for aid
through Rehabilitation Services, Educational Assistance for Veterans, Educational Assistance for Veterans’ Children, and
other sources.
Institutional Grants/Discounts
Augsburg offers grants/discounts for a variety of different students. Specific information about the different grants and
scholarships, along with eligibility requirements, can be found online at www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/payment
plans-and-discounts/
Loan Assistance
Graduate students must be enrolled at least half-time in order to receive federal loans. Three semester credits per term
is considered half-time. Six semester credits per term is considered full-time.
• Federal Stafford Student Loan
o Unsubsidized Stafford Loan; interest begins accruing on the date of disbursement and the borrower is
responsible for all interest. The borrower may choose to make payments while in school or may defer payments
and allow interest to accrue and be capitalized (added to the balance of the loan).
• Federal Parent Loan Program (PLUS)
o PLUS is a loan program to help graduate students meet college costs. Students may borrow up to the cost of
attendance (minus all other student financial aid).
Further information about loan programs can be found online at www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial.
Financial Policies
Registration is permitted only if the student’s account for a previous term is paid in full or if the student is making
scheduled payments in accordance with an approved online payment plan.
Augsburg College will not release student academic transcripts or graduation diplomas/certificates until all student
accounts are paid in full or, in the case of student loan funds administered by the College (Federal Perkins Student Loan),
are current according to established repayment schedules and the loan entrance and exit interviews have been
completed.
Refund Schedule
Students who withdraw from Augsburg College may be eligible for a refund of a portion of their charges based on the
appropriate refund schedule. Financial aid may also be adjusted for those students who withdraw from the College or
drop one or more courses and receive financial assistance.
For further information view our refund policy online at www.augsburg.edu/studentfinancial/tuition-and-credit-refund/.
Students may appeal refund decisions through the Financial Petition Committee. Petition forms are available online
through the Registrar’s Office website.
Students who wish to withdraw from Augsburg should complete the Withdrawal from College form available online
through the Registrar’s Office website. It must be filled out completely, signed and turned in to the Registrar’s Office.
17
Students who properly withdraw or change to part-time, who are dismissed, or who are released from a housing
contract will have their accounts adjusted for tuition and/or room in accordance with the terms of their housing contract
and/or the appropriate tuition refund schedule.
Students are responsible for cancelling courses through the Registrar’s Office (or online) in order to be eligible for any
refund. Students who unofficially withdraw (stop attending) but do not officially drop courses with the Registrar’s Office
are responsible for all charges. Financial aid may be adjusted based on the student’s last recorded date of attendance.
Refund calculations are based on the date that the drop/add form is processed.
Medical refund
If a student is forced to withdraw from one or more courses in a term due to illness or an accident, the refund will
include the normal refund percentage (based on the regular refund schedule). Requests for medical refunds should be
made through the Financial Petition Committee. Petition forms are available through the Registrar’s Office website. This
extra medical refund will be considered upon submission of documentation from the attending doctor, on letterhead,
verifying the medical circumstances.
Unofficial Withdrawal
Federal regulations require that records of financial aid recipients who earn failing grades in all their classes be
reviewed. If courses are not completed (e.g., unofficial withdrawal, stopped attending), the College is required to refund
financial aid to the appropriate sources according to federal or Augsburg refund policies based on the last recorded date
of attendance. Students are responsible for the entire cost of the term including the portion previously covered by
financial aid should they stop attending. Students are strongly urged to follow guidelines for complete withdrawal from
college. If there are extenuating circumstances, a petition to have the cost of tuition refunded can be made. Petition
forms are available online through the Registrar’s Office website.
A student who registers, does not attend any classes, and does not withdraw may petition to withdraw retroactively.
The student must petition within six months of the end of term and provide proof of non-attendance. Proof can include,
but is not limited to, statements from each instructor that the student never attended, or documentation of attendance
for the term at another college or university. If approved, grades of W will be recorded and charges for the term
dropped. The administrative cancellation fee is $300.

Students can search a wide variety of local, regional, national, and international databases. They have access to 23,000
e-journals, 17,000 e-books, and 190,000 print volumes within Lindell Library and, through a daily courier service, access
to the library holdings of the seven private liberal arts colleges in the Twin Cities. In addition, Lindell Library has a large
collection of media resources. A service-oriented staff provides students and faculty with research assistance and
instruction in the use of information resources. Arrangements are made for access by students with physical limitation
and special needs.
Information Technology Resources
Augsburg College has built a reputation as a leader in its commitment to provide students with relevant and timely
access to information technology and training. Visit the Student Technology website,
www.inside.augsburg.edu/techdesk, for more on Information Technology at Augsburg.
Computing
Students have access to more than 250 on-campus computers. Both PC and Macintosh desktop computers are available
in the Lindell Library Learning Commons and computer lab, and in the 24-hour Urness computer lab. The College has six
computer classrooms and 41 technology-enhanced classrooms. The circulation desk in Lindell Library has 40 wireless
laptops available for use in the library.
Several computer clusters are available for more specific student use within academic departments. A high-speed fiber
optic campus network provides access to AugNet online services, printing, and to the internet. Network-ready student
machines can connect to the campus network from residence hall rooms or any building on campus using WiFi. All of the
AugNet online services are available securely on- and off-campus.
Center for Learning and Accessible Student Services (CLASS)
The Center for Learning and Accessible Student Services (CLASS) provides individualized accommodations and academic
support for students with documented learning, attention, psychiatric, and other cognitive disabilities, and for students
with physical disabilities which may include TBI, chronic illness, mobility impairments, and vision, hearing, or speech
impairments, and temporary disabilities. CLASS has been recognized as a leader in its field, helping these students gain
access to the college curriculum. Its mission is a reflection of Augsburg’s commitment to providing a rigorous and
challenging, yet supportive, liberal arts education to students with diverse backgrounds, preparations, and experiences.
Each term, Disability Specialists work directly with students to discuss their disabilities and determine a plan for
academic access. Typically, meetings are held weekly and discussions may include:
• Accommodations for testing and coursework (e.g., extended time, note-taking)
• Referrals to other campus resources (e.g., tutoring, student technology assistance, academic advising, counseling,
financial aid)
• Training and use of assistive technology through the Groves Accommodations Laboratory
19
•
•
Assistance with academic, organizational, and time management skills
Campus living accommodations
The Disability Specialists may also consult with instructors, academic advisors, and other members of the College faculty,
staff, or administration to support each student as they work toward success. Taking advantage of these opportunities
and services, however, remains the student’s responsibility.
Any Augsburg student who wants to establish eligibility for accommodations and services should schedule a meeting
with a Specialist to discuss appropriate documentation. CLASS also provides informal screenings for students who
suspect they may have a learning-related disability. These screenings are meant only to help students determine
whether they should seek a thorough evaluation by a qualified professional.
Academic accommodations are intended to ensure access to educational opportunities for students with disabilities and
may not fundamentally alter the basic nature or essential curricular components of an institution’s courses or programs.
CLASS services are made possible in part through endowment support provided by the Gage family and the Groves
Foundation.

will be listed on the transcript with a V grade. If expectations have not been met, the course will be listed with a grade of
W. Audited courses do not count towards graduation.
Withdrawal Grade
A course is given a grade of W (withdrawn) when it is dropped after the deadline for dropping classes without a W grade
and before the last day to withdraw.
21
Incomplete (I) Grades
An incomplete grade (I) may be awarded when the instructor grants permission after determining that a student
emergency may delay completion of coursework. Students who receive an incomplete grade should be capable of
passing the course if they satisfactorily complete outstanding course requirements. To receive an incomplete grade, a
student must file an Application for Incomplete Grade form with the Registrar’s Office that states the reasons for the
request, outlines the work required to complete the course, and includes the course instructor’s signature. The
instructor may stipulate the terms and conditions that apply to course completion; however, students may not attend
the same course (or a portion of the same course) in a following term with an incomplete grade. The student must
complete the outstanding work in enough time to allow evaluation of the work by the instructor and the filing of a grade
before the final day of the following academic term in the student’s program. If the work is not completed by the
specified date of the following academic term, the grade for the course becomes 0.0.
Extension (X) Grades
Internships, independent studies, and directed studies may sometimes last longer than one term. When this is the case,
they must be completed by the grading deadlines within one year from the beginning of the first term of registration. A
grade of X (extension) is given by the instructor to indicate that the study is extended. It is expected that students given
X extensions will continue to communicate with their instructors and demonstrate that satisfactory progress is being
maintained. A final grade will be issued at the end of the term in which the work is completed and evaluated (but not
longer than one year). An instructor has the right to not grant an extension where satisfactory progress is not
demonstrated. If the course is not completed, a grade of 0.0 will be assigned.
Repeated Courses
A course in which a grade of 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, or N has been received may be repeated for credit. Courses in which
higher grades have been earned may not be repeated for credit and a grade, but may be audited. All courses taken each
term and grades earned, including W and N, will be recorded on the academic record. Only the credits and grades
earned the second time, for legitimately repeated courses, are counted toward graduation and in the grade point
average. Courses completed at Augsburg College must be repeated at Augsburg to be included in the repeat policy.
Grade Point Average
The grade point average (GPA) is based on final grades for all work at Augsburg. It does not include credit and grade
points for work transferred from other colleges. Courses taken on the P/N grading option are recorded, but not
computed in the GPA. The formula for computing the GPA is:
GPA = Total grade points divided by number of credits attempted, i.e., courses with 0.0 to 4.0 grade assigned.
Attendance Policy
Attendance and participation are critical to the success of any course. Evaluation of the level and quality of participation
may be incorporated into the course grade. We view attendance as a joint commitment of both instructors and students
to our professional development. Each instructor has the authority to specify attendance and participation requirements
to address the needs of particular courses, individual students, or various learning styles.
Lack of attendance may result in a failing grade and the requirement to repeat the course. Students must notify the
professor in advance of any expected absence. In the case of emergency, when prior notification is not possible,
students must notify the professor of an absence as soon as possible.
Continuation Policy for Thesis or Final Project (effective in fall 2010)
Following the initial registration term for the final (or summative or capstone) project, students will be automatically
registered for continuation course 999 each semester for up to 15 semesters or until a grade for the completion course
is submitted by the project advisor. Continuation course 999 maintains students’ active status in the graduate program,
including library, AugNet, and parking privileges. This registration will result in a Campus Access Fee of $35 (subject to
change as costs increase) per semester.
Automatic registration will occur for up to five years or 15 terms. At the end of this time, the course grade will change
from X to N. Students who wish to complete the final project after receiving a failing grade must meet with the program
22
director to evaluate readmission to the College and program. Students who are readmitted may need to complete
additional course work and will need to pay full tuition for all additional courses and to repeat the final project course.
If/when the final project course is completed, the new grade would supersede the previous grade.
Students may withdraw from the College, and thus from continuation course 999 and the final project course, at any
point during the continuation period and receive a W notation on the transcript for the final project course. Following a
withdrawal, students are welcome to meet with the program director to evaluate readmission to the College and
program. Students may be subject to additional coursework.
An accounts receivable hold will be placed on the student’s account if a college-wide $250 unpaid threshold is reached.
The threshold will adjust with the practices of the Student Accounts Office. If a student owes more than the threshold
amount, the Registrar’s Office will not continue to automatically enroll the student in continuation 999. The Registrar’s
Office and the Student Accounts Office will inform the student, the program director, and coordinator that the student
must pay the account (including the late fee). At this point coordinators and/or program directors will communicate
with the student and the faculty advisor and, if necessary, request that the faculty advisor submit a grade change of N.
The student also may elect to withdraw from the College. If the grade change has not been submitted within one term,
the program director will submit the grade change of N.
This policy is effective as of September 2010. Students will sign a contract outlining the terms of the continuation policy,
which will be kept on file with the program and in the Registrar’s Office. Accumulated charges stand for current
students, but beginning in fall 2010 students will be charged $35 per term. Student Financial Services will work with
students, as needed, who are currently in the continuation phase and who have accumulated a debt higher than the
$250 threshold.
Credit and Contact Hours
Augsburg’s credit hour policy follows the federal guidelines in defining a semester credit hour as one fifty-minute period
of instruction and 100 minutes of out-of-class work per week for fifteen weeks, or the equivalent amount of student
work completed over a different time frame or via a different delivery method.
All Augsburg programs follow the semester calendar with semester lengths from 14-16 weeks. Augsburg offers a
summer semester which follows the same format as both fall and spring semester. Students must take at least 3 credits
to be considered half-time, and 6 or more credits to be considered full-time. Students may take up to 22 credits.
Degree Requirements
To be conferred the graduate degree, all graduate students must achieve the following:
• Successful completion of all required courses
• A cumulative GPA of 3.0; Physician Assistant students must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
• Successful completion of all degree requirements within the stipulated period of matriculation or a signed
continuation agreement with Augsburg College.
Probation and Dismissal
Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the
student will be placed on academic probation for the following term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be
restored in order for a student to be removed from probation. Graduate students in the Physician Assistant must consult
the PA Program WƌŽŐƌĞƐƐŝŽŶ^ƚĂŶĚĂƌĚƐWŽůŝĐLJ.
A student whose GPA falls below the required GPA for his/her graduate program (3.0 in most programs) in two or more
terms may be subject to probation or dismissal. A plan for the student to continue in the program may be worked out
with the program director.
Students may also be dismissed for violation of standards of behavior defined by their profession, their program, or the
College.
Dismissal Appeals Process
A student may appeal a program’s dismissal decision using the College’s program dismissal appeals process. Appeals are
limited to procedural errors that the student can demonstrate negatively affected the outcome.
23
The student initiates the appeal process by submitting a hard copy of the statement of appeal to the Assistant Vice
President of Academic Affairs and Dean of Graduate Studies (AVP-Graduate Studies); email is not acceptable. The
statement must identify each procedural error and state how each error negatively affected the outcome. The
statement of appeal will be the only basis of the student’s appeal. The AVP-Graduate Studies must receive the student’s
statement of appeal within 14 calendar days of the date on the department’s written notification of dismissal.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the statement of appeal to the program chair/director. The program must
submit a response to the student’s statement of appeal within 15 business days of the date that the statement was
received by the AVP-Graduate Studies’ office. A hard copy of the program’s response should be submitted to the AVPGraduate Studies. The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the program’s response to the student.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will convene the Program Dismissal Appeals Committee, which will include the AVP-Graduate
Studies as a non-voting chair and three program faculty members (one from programs not named in the appeal:
Business, Creative Writing, Education, Leadership, Nursing, Physician Assistant Studies, Social Work). The Program
Dismissal Appeals Committee will schedule its hearing within 15 business days of receipt of the program’s statement of
response. The Committee will meet with the student and a program representative to review the procedures and ask
questions of both the student and the program representative. The student and program representative may each bring
a third party to the review meeting (limited to an Augsburg College faculty member, staff member, or student). The role
of the third party representative is to provide support to the student or the program representative, not to serve as an
advocate during the meeting.
Dropping or Withdrawing
Courses may be dropped or withdrawn online through AugNet Records and Registration or with a Registration Form. To
see the drop and withdrawal deadlines, see the Academic Calendar at www.augsburg.edu/registrar/.
Independent Study
Students may request to complete an independent study course as an addition to the required coursework. A faculty
sponsor is required for an independent study project, and project proposals must be approved by the program director
in order to receive credit. Normally, independent study may not be used as a replacement for a standard course offered
in the curriculum, with the exception of the general elective (if approved). A special independent study registration form
is required and is available on the Registrar’s Office website or at the Enrollment Center.
Term Off
Students who interrupt their program enrollment for longer than one semester must readmit to the College and
program to resume their degree program. For an absence of any length, students should coordinate with their program
director prior to leaving. Due to a variety of program schedules and cohorts for some degrees, it is required that
students meet with their advisor and obtain the advice of their director.
Evaluation of Transfer Credit
Students may petition the program director for transfer credit to apply to program requirements. The transfer of credit
will be evaluated on an individual basis. Students will be asked to provide appropriate documentation regarding
previous coursework, including but not limited to an official transcript, course description, and syllabus. In order to be
considered for transfer, a course must be from a regionally-accredited college or university institution and graded 3.0/B
or better. Courses must have been taken at the graduate level and course content must be comparable to program
requirements at Augsburg.
The maximum number of semester credits that can be transferred is:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Master of Arts in Education (6)
Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing (12)
Master of Arts in Leadership (6)
Master of Arts in Nursing (9)
Master of Business Administration (18)
Master of Science, Physician Assistant Studies (Contact program coordinator)
24
•
Master of Social Work (22)
Augsburg credits are calculated in semester hours. If you completed courses at other institutions that are quarter hours,
they will be converted to semester hours. One quarter hour equates to two-thirds of a semester hour.
Courses and credits that are accepted in transfer are recorded on the student’s transcript. Grades and grade points from
other institutions are not transferred to Augsburg and are not included in the student’s cumulative grade point average.

Master of Arts in Education
We are pleased with your interest in the Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program. Augsburg has a long history in
teacher education with alumni of our programs teaching throughout Minnesota and elsewhere. We know that Augsburg
College is an excellent choice for you to pursue your teaching dreams and goals—and here’s why.
Our Philosophy
The Education Department program themes include relationships, reflection and inquiry, diversity and equity, and
leadership. You can read about each theme on the following page, but for the MAE program, I want to highlight one of
the program themes—leadership. As this program theme suggests, we expect our students to leave our programs as
responsive, knowledgeable teachers prepared to exercise leadership in the classroom and, eventually, the school and
community.
Our urban setting provides yet another dimension to our programs through a combination of course content, field
experiences, and classroom instructors. Our goal is that students will leave our programs as collaborative and capable
teachers committed to educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
Our Faculty
Augsburg faculty members who teach in the MAE program are a mix of full‐time and adjunct instructors, all of whom
have K‐12 teaching experience. Many adjunct instructors are currently teaching in K‐12 settings; all full‐time faculty
members are frequent visitors to K‐12 settings through student teaching and field experience supervision, volunteer
work, and/or in‐service education. We understand the importance of what we do and what you hope to do. We value
good teaching and, most especially, we value good teachers.
Our Accessibility
We realize that although teaching is your dream, your reality most likely includes work, family, and personal
responsibilities. Because we understand the demands adult students face, we offer flexible scheduling. A majority of
licensure and graduate‐level courses are taught in the evenings and weekends to allow you to manage these
responsibilities while pursuing your goals. You will need to be available during the weekday for the challenge and
responsibility of field experiences, but education coursework is accessible through the weekend and evening schedules.
As a student in Augsburg’s Master of Arts in Education licensure and degree program, you will find yourself among
interesting students and dedicated professors who believe that all children deserve a good, highly‐qualified teacher—
the teacher you can become.
Vicki L. Olson, PhD
Director, Master of Arts in Education
Education Department Mission
The mission of the Augsburg Education Department is to develop responsive, knowledgeable teachers committed to
educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
Program Themes
Responsive, knowledgeable teachers understand the dynamic interaction among relationships, reflection and inquiry,
diversity and equity, and leadership. These four interrelated program themes provide lenses through which we filter our
practice.
Relationships
Learning is relational and communal. Responsive teachers create significant relationships with their students,
colleagues, and community partners by developing learning communities. These nurturing learning communities provide
a safe, trustworthy place where challenging and engaging questions can be considered. We model the kinds of learning
communities that we expect our graduates to create. We share with our students a learning model that connects
26
content, theory, and practice in an ongoing cycle. Students and their learning are the focus for responsive teachers.
Therefore we embrace and foster a progressive and constructivist orientation.
Reflection and Inquiry
Responsive teachers are reflective practitioners who are students of teaching and learning. Providing numerous
frameworks through which to filter our experience encourages intentional and thoughtful inquiry. Through field
placements, service learning, generative questions, and classroom experiences, students and faculty develop their
perspectives about teaching and learning. Critical reflection allows us to examine content, theory, and practice in ways
that transform our practice. We think it is important to understand and learn how to manage the many polarities
inherent in the teaching and learning process.
Diversity and Equity
Responsive teachers embrace diversity and intentionally work to ensure that all learners, especially those who for some
reason have been marginalized, learn and develop in powerful ways. We continually reflect on what it means to be a
“school in the city.” We recognize that each student is unique, shaped by culture and experience; therefore,
differentiating instruction is essential. The perspective of multiple intelligences, learning style theory and teaching for
understanding help us differentiate and enable us to provide choice, variety, and flexibility. Responsive teachers believe
that all students can learn. They also have a sense of efficacy and believe that they can help all students learn.
Leadership
Responsive teachers recognize that becoming a learning leader is a developmental process, which begins in pre‐service
education and continues throughout one’s career. Teachers serve as leaders within the classroom, and with experience,
increased confidence, and professional development become leaders within the school, the district, and the community.
Teacher leaders view themselves as lifelong learners. They become role models committed to their profession as a
vocation rather than a job. Emerging teacher leaders keep student learning at the center of their work while advocating
for instructional innovation, constructivist curricular development, and systemic change.
Master of Arts in Education Conceptual Framework
Teacher leadership is the theme that threads through our graduate licensure and degree completion program. The
Augsburg Education Department believes that teachers are leaders in their classrooms and should be leaders in their
institutions and communities.
The leadership focus plays out in three ways. First, the additional work required in the graduate versions of the
combined undergraduate/graduate courses focuses on providing graduate students the chance to exercise leadership as
well as extend their knowledge beyond the basic requirements. Second, in the degree completion component, students
are required to include coursework focused on leadership and study aspects of leadership as part of their degree
program. Third, the final project—be it an action research, a leadership application project, or the performance
assessment option—gives students the opportunity to study an issue of concern and, supported by research, define a
means for addressing it.
Three Teacher Leadership Aspirations inform our program. They are as follows:
Aspiration 1: Teacher leaders value learning for personal and professional growth. Teacher leaders share knowledge
effectively with colleagues. We believe that teacher leaders are comfortable with their knowledge and expertise,
neither flaunting it nor hiding it, but sharing it with others generously. They work to build bridges with a full range of
colleagues, but they don’t let recalcitrant colleagues stop their own development. They see learning as a continuous
endeavor and seek it throughout their careers.
Aspiration 2: Teachers leaders think big—beyond the classroom to the broader context of education and community.
We believe that teacher leaders see systems and the “big picture” and are able to put their classrooms, schools, and
communities into a broader context. They understand the link between policies, politics, and education and participate
in change efforts at the macro and micro levels. They seek to work with administrators to establish school and district
policy that improves life for everyone. If this involves political action, they are prepared to engage in it. Teacher leaders
also understand that teaching and learning are dynamic and that change within school systems is an ever‐present
27
phenomenon. They are informed decision‐makers predisposed to take on the challenge of change when they think it
benefits students, teachers, and/or community.
Aspiration 3: Teacher leaders possess courage and an orientation to action. We believe that teacher leaders help
others not be afraid. They are able to help people to take warranted risks and step outside their comfort zones. They
have the courage to bring people together to see the bigger picture and then help people get there. Teacher leaders
accept both power and accountability. They understand that responsibility without power diminishes potential for
effectiveness. They believe that accountability is a fair trade for the power to take effective action. They operate from a
foundation of self‐efficacy.
Program Overview
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) is designed to provide a teaching license as part of a master’s degree program. K‐
12 initial teaching licenses offered at Augsburg include:
Elementary education (K‐6), with or without a middle school content area endorsement in math, communication
arts, social studies, or science. Also available is the pre‐primary endorsement to the elementary license.
Secondary education (5‐12 and K‐12) in social studies, communication arts/literature, visual arts, health,
mathematics, music, and physical education; and 9‐12 in biology, chemistry, and physics.
K‐12 English as a Second Language*
K‐12 Special Education: Academic Behavior Strategist
Teachers who are already licensed can work towards the MAE degree through the following four licensure endorsement
options:
K‐12 English as a Second Language*
K‐12 Special Education: Academic Behavior Strategist
K‐12 Reading
Pre‐Primary
All teachers seeking licensure through Augsburg must take and pass all tests required by the state of Minnesota for
licensure. The MAE degree is also available without a license but with an education core. See the MAE program director
for details.
Accreditations and Approvals
Augsburg College Teacher Education programs are accredited and approved by:
National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE)
Minnesota Board of Teaching. (MN BOT)
Augsburg College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and
Schools. For a complete list of Augsburg’s accreditations, approvals, and memberships, see the listing in the
Accreditation, Approvals, and Memberships section of this catalog.
Program Structure
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program is made up of a core of education licensure courses coupled with a
degree completion option. Courses in the degree completion phase are drawn from the Master of Arts in Leadership
(MAL) and graduate courses in education. Most students in the MAE program pursue a K‐12 teaching license as part of
their program plan. The MAE degree is also open to students who do not want a teaching license but do want a
background in education and leadership.
The MAE degree requires ten or eleven Augsburg graduate level courses, depending on the degree completion option. In
addition, several courses at the undergraduate level are required for licensure. Only courses taken at the graduate level
apply towards the MAE degree.
28
Credit
MAE graduate level courses are offered for 3 semester credits. Each course is comprised of 37.5 instructional hours with
the expectation of about 75 hours of independent study outside of class.
Schedule
The majority of the education courses in the MAE licensure and degree programs are offered through the weekend
schedule. Courses during the weekend meet face to face every other weekend with online instruction during the
alternate weeks. Some education courses and many undergraduate content area courses are offered on a weekday
evening schedule. These typically meet weekly face‐to‐face. The MAL degree completion courses are offered primarily
through the weekend schedule through a mix of face‐to‐face and online instruction. Summer session courses are offered
primarily weekdays and weekday evenings with a few on weekends during the first summer session. Summer courses
are offered in a mix of formats from all online to all face‐to‐face.
The following teaching licenses are available entirely through the evening, weekend, and summer schedule: elementary
education, most middle school and pre‐primary specialty area endorsements, 5‐12 social studies, 5‐12 communication
arts, K‐12 art, K‐12 special education, K‐12 English as a second language, and K‐12 reading.
Additional licenses in the following areas are available through a combination of weekday, weekday evening, weekend,
and summer schedules: biology, chemistry, health, mathematics, music, physical education, and physics. For these
licenses, the education and degree completion courses are taken during the weekend, weekday evenings, and summer
while some, if not all, of the content area courses are taken during the weekday.
The weekend schedule is comprised of two semesters spread from early September through late April. In general,
classes are held every other weekend. The weekday schedule is also comprised of two semesters spread from early
September through late April. Classes offered during the weekday meet one to three times per week. Classes offered
jointly between weekday and weekend meet on a weekly basis in the evening. The official academic calendars can be
found at www.augsburg.edu/registrar.
Curriculum—Teaching Licenses
K‐6 Elementary Education
This program is designed to prepare teachers for grades K‐6. Optional endorsements in middle school specialty areas of
math, science, social studies, and communication arts and in pre‐primary can be pursued along with or separately from
the K‐6 license. The teaching license and some endorsements are offered at both undergraduate and graduate levels
through a mix of undergraduate courses and combined graduate and undergraduate courses. Graduate‐level licensure
coursework (500 and above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and have been admitted to
the MAE program.
All of the following courses must be taken for K‐6 elementary licensure. Up to seven courses may be taken at the
graduate (500) level and applied toward the MAE degree.
EDC 200/522 ‐ Orientation to Education in an Urban Setting*

EED 488 ‐ TPA and Student Teaching Seminar
*Field experience hours are required in these courses. Students spend 20 or more hours per term in field experiences.
These experiences occur in K‐6 classrooms during the weekday. If more than one course with field experience is taken in
a given term, field experience requirements expand accordingly (i.e., two courses with 20 hours of field experience each
require a total of 40 hours).
Undergraduate Liberal Arts Requirements
The number of supporting content area courses required for licensure depends upon the courses completed as part of
the bachelor’s degree and/or other coursework. Requirements are determined by Minnesota licensure standards for
specific college‐level coursework in math, biology, physics, and earth science for all students seeking elementary
licensure. Specific requirements are on file in the Education Department.
Minnesota licensure standards allow for optional subject area endorsements in communication arts/literature, social
studies, math, and science. The optional pre‐primary endorsement is also available. Specific requirements for these
endorsements are on file in the Education Department.
Previous coursework can be accepted into the licensure program if it meets Minnesota standards and if a grade of C or
better was achieved. The Education Department and the content area departments determine the courses that are
accepted. Transcripts, course descriptions, and course syllabi are used to make these determinations. Courses that are
older than five years are judged on a case‐by‐case basis. Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is
not automatically accepted into the MAE degree. The program has limits on the amount and type of courses that are
accepted. Grades of B or better are required for transfer consideration. See the MAE program director for approval of
graduate coursework accepted in transfer.
Preprimary Endorsement for Elementary Licensure
This endorsement can be added to a K‐6 elementary license. Required courses include the following:
PSY 250 ‐ Child Development
SOC 231 ‐ Family Systems: Cross Cultural Perspectives
or SPE 490/540 ‐ Parent and Professional Planning (Graduate students take SPE 540.)
ECE 345/545 ‐ Foundations of Preprimary Education
ECE 346/546 ‐ Learning Environments for Preprimary‐Aged Children
ECE 347/547 ‐ Immersion and Teaching Competence
ECE 488, 489 ‐ Student Teaching: Preprimary
K‐12 and 5‐12 Secondary Education
K‐12 and 5‐12 licensures in several content areas are offered through a combination of graduate and undergraduate
coursework. K‐12 licenses prepare teachers to teach a content area across elementary, middle school, and high school.
Licenses for grades 5‐ 12 prepare teachers to teach at the middle and high school levels. Graduate‐level licensure
coursework (500 and above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and meet MAE admissions
criteria.
The following content area majors are offered almost entirely on weekends, weekday evenings, and summer:
communication arts/literature, history or economics or psychology or sociology (all for social studies), art. Students
seeking 5–12 licensure in social studies must complete a broad‐based core of courses in the social studies in addition to
30
a social science major. Education courses for these licenses are also taken during weekends, weekday evenings, and
summer.
The following content area majors are offered primarily or entirely through the weekday program: biology, chemistry,
physics, health, physical education, music, and mathematics. Students seeking licensure in any of these areas typically
will need to take additional content courses in the weekday schedule. Students can obtain a 9‐12 license in physics,
chemistry, or biology and have the option of adding the 5–8 general science to the 9‐12 license. Students also can obtain
the 5–8 general science license without the 9–12 license. Education courses for these licenses are taken during
weekends and weekday evenings.
Licensure Requirements
The following requirements are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate level. All courses must be taken for
licensure; four to seven of them also may be taken at the graduate level and applied toward the master’s degree in
education.
EDC 200/522 ‐ Orientation to Education in an Urban Setting*
EDC 206/566 ‐ Diversity/Minnesota American Indians
EDC 310/533 ‐ Learning and Development in an Educational Setting*
EDC 410/544 ‐ Learners with Special Needs*
EDC 490/580 ‐ School and Society
ESE 325/525 ‐ Creating Learning Environments
ESE 300/500 ‐ Reading and Writing in Content Area*
EDC 591 ‐ Topics
To complete the license, students also will need to complete the following requirements at the undergraduate level:
HPE 115 ‐ Chemical Dependency Education
EDC 220 ‐ Educational Technology
ESE 3XX ‐ K‐12 or 5‐12 Methods (in the content area)*
ESE 481, 483, 485 ‐ Student Teaching: Secondary
ESE 488 ‐ TPA and Student Teaching Seminar
*Field experience hours are required in these courses. A minimum of 100 hours in classrooms and education‐related
settings is required prior to student teaching. Students spend approximately 20 hours per term in field experiences.
Undergraduate Content Area Requirements
The equivalent of a major in the licensure content area is required for K‐12 and 5‐12 licenses. Students who have
majored in a field in which we offer licensure must have their previous coursework evaluated by the major department
at Augsburg. Two or more content area courses tied to Minnesota licensure standards are generally required, even with
a completed academic major.
Previous coursework is evaluated by the content area department and accepted if it meets Minnesota licensure
standards and if a grade of C or better was achieved. Coursework older than five years is judged on a case‐by‐case basis.
Specific course requirements for each content area are on file in the Education Department.
Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is not automatically accepted into the MAE degree program.
See the MAE program director for approval to use graduate level transfer courses in the degree program.
Special Education
Augsburg College offers one licensure option in K–12 Special Education: Academic Behavioral Strategist (ABS). This
program qualifies students to teach in special education programs and positions working with students with mild to
moderate disabilities in the areas of emotional/behavioral disabilities, learning disabilities, autism spectrum disabilities,
developmental and cognitive disabilities and other health disabilities. This program is built on an inclusive education
model. Under this model, students learn how to work closely with both special and general educators to facilitate
inclusion of special education students into the regular education classroom. Five years after being licensed, teachers
must extend their license in one of the above categories through additional coursework.
31
Also available is the Naadamaadiwin Tribal Special Education Cohort—This graduate licensure program in Special
Education: EBD/LD is designed and taught from an American Indian perspective. It is offered in collaboration with the
University of Minnesota‐Duluth as a hybrid (partly face‐to‐face and partly online) cohort program. The licensure courses
can be applied towards the MAE degree. See the Education Department and www.augsburg.edu/mae/tribal‐special‐
education for more information.
The ABS licensure program and the Naadamaadiwin Tribal Special Education Cohort program are offered through the
weekend and summer schedules.
Licensure Requirements
Licensure requirements are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Classes will include both

K‐12 English as a Second Language (ESL) License
The K‐12 English as a Second Language license is available as an initial license as well as an endorsement to an existing
license. This license qualifies teachers to work with K‐12 students for whom English is a second language across a range
of subject areas. The K‐12 ESL licensure program is comprised of both undergraduate and graduate courses; up to six of
the graduate courses can apply to the completion of the MAE degree. Graduate‐level licensure coursework (500 and
above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and have been admitted to the MAE program. A
pre‐requisite to program admissions is two years of high school level or one year of college level language instruction.
The K‐12 ESL program is offered in a hybrid format which means that courses are a mix of face to face and online
instruction. Classes are offered during the academic year in the weekend semester framework and during summer
session to make them accessible to working adults. This license is also offered as an undergraduate major to weekend
college students seeking a baccalaureate degree.
The following requirements are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate level. All courses must be taken for
licensure, and up to six also may be taken at the graduate level and applied toward the master’s degree in education.

K‐12 Reading Teacher Endorsement
The K‐12 Reading Endorsement provides teachers with existing teaching licenses an opportunity to expand their
knowledge and practice in the area of reading instruction and potentially provide leadership within schools and districts
in reading instruction. Candidates for this license will complete five classes that have been designed to meet the
requirements established for this license by the Minnesota Board of Teaching. Students may use these courses to fulfill
requirements for the Master of Arts in Education degree.
The K‐12 Reading Teacher Endorsement program is offered in a hybrid format which means that courses are a mix of
face‐to‐face and online instruction. Classes are offered during summer sessions and within the weekend format during
the academic year. The endorsement program is designed to be completed within 12 months in a cohort model. Field
experiences at elementary, middle school and high school levels are required; student teaching is not required.
Required courses include:
EDC 500 ‐ Reading Leadership in the K‐12 Schools
EDC 506 ‐ Readership, Literature, and New Literacies
EDC 515 ‐ Reading Leadership: Reading Theory and Research*
EDC 535 ‐ Reading Leadership: Assessment and Instruction with Elementary Readers*
EDC 545 ‐ Reading Leadership: Assessment and Instruction with Middle and High School Readers*
*Field experience required
Student Teaching
Students are required to complete student teaching for initial and additional licenses (unless otherwise indicated). In the
MAE program, student teaching is generally completed before finishing the degree. Students can apply for licensure at
this point and finish the degree later. Student teaching for elementary, secondary, and K‐12 initial licenses lasts 12‐14
weeks, depending on licensure scope. During that time, students work full‐time as student teachers and are supervised
by an Augsburg faculty member. Students register for eight to twelve semester credits of student teaching and a two
semester credit TPA and student teaching seminar. They meet at Augsburg College for student teaching seminars several
times during the term. Most student teaching placements are in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area and
Rochester. However, students do have the opportunity to student teach abroad, where students complete a 10‐week
student teaching experience in the metro area and then complete another student teaching experience abroad.
Opportunities to teach abroad are available around the world, and it is a wonderful way to build a global perspective in
education. Additional information is available through the Education Department.
Student teaching for special education is 12 weeks in length for initial licenses and 7 weeks for those who already hold a
license. For students who are working in a special education setting appropriate to the ABS license, a student teaching
placement at that site may be possible, pending district approval. Additional information is available through the
Education Department.
Student teaching for ESL is 14 weeks in length and requires two placements, elementary and secondary. A single seven
week placement is required for those who already hold a license. See the Education Department for more information.
Student teaching is required for the preprimary endorsement and middle school endorsements. See the Education
Department for more information.

A Greeting from the President
I am pleased to know of your interest in Augsburg College’s exciting and innovative graduate programs. You are part of a
select and discerning group of professionals who seek to find a graduate program that combines an excellent curriculum,
a values-based approach to work, a talented and experienced faculty, and program formats that meet the needs of busy
and successful people. Augsburg College’s graduate-level programs in Business Administration, Education, Leadership,
Nursing, Physician Assistant Studies, and Social Work are distinguished by the opportunities they provide students to expand decision-making and strategic skills. Beginning in the fall of 2010, Augsburg is proud to offer its inaugural doctoral
degree program—the Doctor in Nursing Practice program.
Augsburg College is characterized by a strong mission: Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens,
thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders. The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged
community that is committed to intentional diversity in its life and work. An Augsburg education is defined by excellence in the liberal arts and professional studies, guided by the faith and values of the Lutheran church, and shaped by its
urban and global settings.
For our graduate programs, this mission helps to shape an innovative educational experience that features an expansive
perspective on social responsibility, economic realities, business initiative, and environmental sustainability.
At Augsburg College, we believe that our distinctive educational purpose is to help you, the individual student, find your
calling at work and in the world. The Augsburg graduate programs are designed to offer you quality educational experiences, personal attention, and opportunities to expand your personal and professional talents and skills. We are confident
that our graduates are prepared for leadership in our ever-changing global society, the hallmark of an Augsburg degree.
Sincerely,
Paul C. Pribbenow
President, Augsburg College

Greetings from the Academic Affairs Office
Welcome to our graduate programs. We are committed to education that prepares people for leadership in their communities and places of work. We believe that the liberal and professional arts and sciences form the best preparation for living in the fast-paced, changing, and complex world of today and tomorrow.
Our locations in the vital metropolitan areas of Minneapolis/St. Paul and Rochester offer exciting and challenging field
experiences for courses that include real-life learning through academic internships, experiential education, and cultural
enrichment. The Twin Cities and Rochester become extended campuses for Augsburg students. Also, the diversity in our
campus community ensures that our graduates are prepared for the range of experiences and perspectives that characterize today’s global environment.
When you join Augsburg you become part of a community that offers lifelong learning opportunities in state-of-the-art
classrooms, with accessible libraries and dedicated faculty and staff. You join a body of experienced people who quickly
form your network of employer connections and career opportunities. We encourage our alumni to become your mentors and build on our city connections through public events, including our convocations and Advent Vespers.
All our programs share distinctive qualities, including our commitment and mission to be of service, with one another
and to our neighbors. We expect our graduates to have their eyes on the world as they develop their identity as global citizens, with a sense of responsibility to participate in socially- and economically-sustainable development. We hope that at
some time during your degree, you’ll explore the opportunities to participate in an international learning experience—for
example, travel seminars to our global campuses in Central America, Mexico, and Namibia, and opportunities to meet
visiting students and faculty members from our partner institutions in Norway, Germany, Finland, and Slovenia. Inspired
by the faith of our Lutheran founders to be inclusive to the early immigrants who came to Augsburg’s doors, we welcome
a diversity of cultures and faiths.
Although each graduate program has its own “neighborhood” and unique features, we encourage interdisciplinary
courses and opportunities for you to study with colleagues across disciplines. We encourage both “horizontal” initiatives—i.e., cross-program collaboration—as well as “vertical” initiatives—engaging our undergraduate students to consider graduate work. This means that sometimes you may be encouraging classmates who are just beginning to imagine a
graduate degree.
We are companions on your journey in fulfilling your dream of a graduate degree and we cannot wait to meet you.
Sincerely,
Barbara A. Farley

About Augsburg College
About Augsburg College

their communities and places of work. Augsburg graduates
will be able to demonstrate not only the mastery of a major
field of study, but also the ability to think critically, solve
problems, act ethically and communicate effectively in a
global world. The heart of an Augsburg education is the Augsburg mission, informed by the liberal and professional arts
and sciences, to serve our neighbors in the heart of the city
with faith-based, ethical values. We welcome students from a
diversity of backgrounds and experiences. Also, our programs
look to the world through international courses and cultural

Mission Statement
Augsburg is enhanced by its global centers in Namibia, Mexico, and Central America. Students can perform research, take
courses, or consult with faculty in those locations to gain new
perspectives on their discipline.
Augsburg College educates students to be informed citizens,
thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders.
The Augsburg experience is supported by an engaged community, committed to intentional diversity in its life and work.
An Augsburg education is defined by excellence in the liberal
arts and professional studies, guided by the faith and values of
the Lutheran Church, and shaped by our urban and global
settings.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by Norwegian
Lutherans in America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in Marshall, Wis., and
moved to Minneapolis in 1872. A short history of Augsburg
College can be found at www.augsburg.edu/about/history.html
Today, Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and
dedication of its founders who believed:
• Education should have a solid liberal arts core at the graduate level; this focus centers on the ability to think critically
and broadly about the world and the work we do in it;
• An Augsburg education should be preparation for service in
community and centers of faith;
• The city—with all its excitement, challenges, and diversity—is an unequaled learning environment.
The vision of the College’s work today is lived out in the
phrase, “We believe we are called to serve our neighbor.”
Through common commitments to living faith, active citizenship, meaningful work, and global perspective, Augsburg prepares its students to become effective, ethical citizens in a
complex global society.
Degrees Offered
Augsburg’s undergraduate program of liberal arts and sciences
is offered on both a traditional weekday schedule and a nontraditional weekend and evening schedule. Augsburg offers
Dual degrees:
BA in accounting/MAL—see p. 40
MSW/MBA—see p. 58 and 76
MSW/MA in theology, with Luther Seminary—see p. 75
A Community of Learners
Essential to the goals of Augsburg’s graduate programs is participation in a community of adult learners. This community
is enriched by the presence of men and women with a variety
of work and life experiences. To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages students to make use of
all College facilities such as Lindell Library, the Kennedy Center, and the Christensen Center, and to participate in College
activities such as music and dramatic presentations and
athletic events.
Graduate Faculty
The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and
Augsburg College is particularly proud of the excellence and
commitment of its professors. Most faculty hold the doctorate
or other terminal degree, and all consider teaching and service
to be the focus of their activity at the College. Faculty are involved in social, professional, and a variety of research activities, but these support and are secondary to their teaching.
Faculty are actively involved in a dynamic faculty development program that introduces them to best practices in teaching and learning techniques and theories.
Augsburg’s small classes encourage its tradition of close involvement between professors and students. Faculty act as academic advisers and participate regularly in campus activities.

FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of
1974 as amended, provides certain rights to students regarding their education records. Augsburg College understands
About Augsburg College
that no information other than “directory information” can be
released without the written permission of the student. Students must give permission in writing for educational information to be released to anyone outside of the official
personnel (faculty and administration) at Augsburg. For example, this means that faculty or others cannot write letters of
support/recommendation or nominate students for awards unless explicit written permission is given by the student to release non-“directory information.” It is not sufficient to ask
for letters of recommendation.
In accordance with FERPA, you are notified of the following:
Right to inspect and review education records
You have the right to review and inspect substantially all of
your education records maintained by or at Augsburg College.
You must request to review your education records in writing,
with your signature. The College will respond in a reasonable
time, but no later than 45 days after receiving the request.
Right to request amendment of education records
You have the right to seek to have corrected any parts of an
education record that you believe to be inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of your right to privacy. This includes the right to a hearing to present evidence that the
record should be changed if Augsburg decides not to alter
your education records as you requested.
Right to give permission for disclosure of personally identifiable information
You have the right to be asked and to give Augsburg your permission to disclose personally identifiable information contained in your education records, except to the extent that
FERPA and the regulations regarding FERPA authorize disclosure without your permission.
One exception which permits disclosure without consent is
disclosure to school officials with legitimate education interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in
an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel
and health staff); person or company with whom the College
has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection
agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees, or a student
serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or
grievance committee, or assisting another school official performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education
record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility.
carefully the consequences of any decision by you to withhold
directory information. Should you decide to inform Augsburg
College not to release Directory Information, any future request for such information from persons or organizations outside of Augsburg College will be refused.
“Directory information” includes the following:
• The student’s name;
• The student’s address;
• The student’s telephone number;
• The student’s e-mail address;
• The student’s date and place of birth;
• The student’s major and minor field of study;
• The student’s academic class level;
• The student’s enrollment status (FT/HT/LHT);
• The student’s participation in officially recognized activities
and sports;
• The student’s degrees and awards received;
• The weight and height of members of athletic teams;
• The student’s dates of attendance;
• The most recent previous educational agency or institution
attended by the student; and
• The student’s photograph.
Augsburg College will honor your request to withhold all Directory Information but cannot assume responsibility to contact you for subsequent permission to release it. Augsburg
assumes no liability for honoring your instructions that such
information be withheld. The Office of the Registrar must be
notified in writing of your intent to withhold your Directory
Information. If the notice is not received by the registrar prior
to Sept. 15 (or within 10 school days of the start of a subsequent term for a new student), it will be assumed that all Directory Information may be disclosed for the remainder of the
current academic year. A new notice for withholding disclosure must be completed each academic year.
Right to complain to FERPA Office
You have the right to file a complaint with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Ave. S.W., Washington, D.C.,
20202-4605, concerning Augsburg’s failure to comply with
FERPA.
Reporting Educational Information
Letters of reference must be requested in writing and explicitly indicate what information may be reported in the letter.
Right to withhold disclosure of “directory information”
FERPA uses the term “Directory Information” to refer to those
categories of personally identifiable information that may be
released for any purpose at the discretion of Augsburg College
without notification of the request or disclosure to the student.
Under FERPA you have the right to withhold the disclosure of
the directory information listed below. Please consider very

Academic Programs and Policies
Academic Programs and Policies
Academic Calendars
Most of our graduate programs meet on a trimester calendar.
Physician Assistant Studies classes meet on a semester day
schedule.
The official academic calendars for individual programs can
be found at www.augsburg.edu/registrar. All academic calendars are subject to change.
Academic Policies
The College and its faculty subscribe to the Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom as promulgated by the American
Association of University Professors and the Association of
American Colleges.
Academic Honesty
A college is a community of learners whose relationship relies
on trust. Honesty is necessary to preserve the integrity and
credibility of scholarship by the Augsburg College community.
Academic dishonesty, therefore, is not tolerated. As a College
requirement, student course projects, papers, and examinations may include a statement by the student pledging to
abide by the College’s academic honesty policies and to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity. (See Augsburg’s Academic Honesty Policy in the Student Guide at
www.augsburg.edu/studentguide/)
Academic Evaluation
Evaluation of academic performance in each program will be
based on number grades using a 4.0 point scale, where 4.0
achieves highest standards of excellence. See each program for
details of field study and special projects. Students must achieve
a 3.0 GPA in order to graduate; Physician Assistant students
must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
The numeric grade point definition for Graduate Studies is:
4.0 grade points
Achieves highest standards of excellence
3.5 grade points
Achieves above acceptable standards
3.0 grade points
Meets acceptable standards
2.5 grade points
Meets minimum standards
2.0–0.0 grade points Unacceptable performance
P
Represents work at 3.0 or higher (not counted in grade
point average)
N No credit (not counted in grade point average)
V Audit
W Withdrawn
I
Incomplete
X In progress, extended beyond term of registration
Withdrawn Status
W—Grade given when a student withdraws from a course
after the deadline without notation on the record
Graduate Catalog I 12
Incomplete (I) Grades
An incomplete grade (I) may be awarded when the instructor
grants permission after determining that a student emergency
may delay completion of coursework. Students who receive
an incomplete grade should be capable of passing the course if
they satisfactorily complete outstanding course requirements.
To receive an incomplete grade, a student must file an Application for Incomplete Grade form with the Office of the Registrar that states the reasons for the request, outlines the work
required to complete the course, and includes the course instructor’s signature. The instructor may stipulate the terms
and conditions that apply to course completion; however, students may not attend the same course (or a portion of the
same course) in a following term with an incomplete grade.
The student must complete the outstanding work in enough
time to allow evaluation of the work by the instructor and the
filing of a grade before the final day of the following academic
term in the student’s program. If the work is not completed by
the specified date of the following academic term, the grade
for the course becomes 0.0.
Academic Probation
Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade
point average. If a student falls below a 3.0 average, the student will be placed on academic probation for the following
term. A 3.0 cumulative grade point average must be restored
in order for a student to be removed from probation. Graduate
students in the Physician Assistan must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
Attendance Policy
Attendance and participation are critical to the success of any
course. Evaluation of the level and quality of participation
may be incorporated into the course grade. We view attendance as a joint commitment of both instructors and students
to our professional development. Each instructor has the authority to specify attendance and participation requirements
to address the needs of particular courses, individual students,
or various learning styles.
Lack of attendance may result in a failing grade and the requirement to repeat the course. Students must notify the professor in advance of any expected absence. In the case of
emergency, when prior notification is not possible, students
must notify the professor of an absence as soon as possible.
Continuation Policy for Thesis or Final Project (effective
in fall 2010)
Following the initial registration term for the final (or summative or capstone) project, students will be automatically
registered for continuation course 999 each trimester for up to
15 trimesters or until a grade for the completion course is
submitted by the project adviser. Continuation course 999
maintains students’ active status in the graduate program, in-
Academic Programs and Policies
cluding library, AugNet, and parking privileges. This registration will result in a Campus Access Fee of $35 (subject to
change as costs increase) per trimester.
Doctor of Nursing Practice—For information about course
credits and contact hours for the Doctor of Nursing program,
see p. 49.
Automatic registration will occur for up to five years or 15
terms. At the end of this time, the course grade will change
from X to N. Students who wish to complete the final project
after receiving a failing grade must meet with the program director to evaluate readmission to the College and program.
Students who are readmitted may need to complete additional
course work and will need to pay full tuition for all additional
courses and to repeat the final project course. If/when the
final project course is completed, the new grade would supersede the previous grade.
Degree Requirements
Students may withdraw from the College, and thus from continuation course 999 and the final project course, at any point
during the continuation period and receive a W notation on
the transcript for the final project course. Following a withdrawal, students are welcome to meet with the program director to evaluate readmission to the College and program.
Students may be subject to additional coursework.
An accounts receivable hold will be placed on the student’s account if a collegewide $250 unpaid threshold is reached. The
threshold will adjust with the practices of the Student Accounts Office. If a student owes more than the threshold
amount, the registrar’s office will not continue to automatically enroll the student in continuation 999. The registrar’s office and the Student Accounts Office will inform the student,
the program director, and coordinator that the student must
pay the account (including the late fee). At this point coordinators and/or program directors will communicate with the
student and the faculty adviser and, if necessary, request that
the faculty adviser submit a grade change of N. The student
also may elect to withdraw from the College. If the grade
change has not been submitted within one term, the program
director will submit the grade change of N.
This policy is effective as of September 2010. Students will
sign a contract outlining the terms of the continuation policy,
which will be kept on file with the program and in the Office
of the Registrar. Accumulated charges stand for current students, but beginning in fall 2010 students will be charged $35
per term. The Enrollment Center will work with students, as
needed, who are currently in the continuation phase and who
have accumulated a debt higher than the $250 threshold.
Course credit and contact hours
A full credit course (1.0) is equal to four semester credits or
six quarter credits. Each full course on the trimester schedule
meets for approximately 28 contact hours (MSW trimesters
meet for 32 hours, and the PA weekday semester schedule is
approximately 45 hours) with the expectation of substantial
independent and group study offered through the web-based
electronic course management system.
To be conferred the graduate degree, all graduate students
must achieve the following:
• Successful completion of all required courses
• A cumulative GPA of 3.0; Physician Assistant students
must consult the PA Program Progression Standards Policy.
• Successful completion of all degree requirements within
the stipulated period of matriculation or a signed continuation agreement with Augsburg College.
Dismissal from the College
A student whose GPA falls below the required GPA for his/her
graduate program (3.0 in most programs) in two or more
terms may be subject to probation or dismissal. A plan for the
student to continue in the program may be worked out with
the program director.
Students may also be dismissed for violation of standards of
behavior defined by their profession, their program, or the
College.
Dismissal Appeals Process
A student may appeal a program’s dismissal decision using the
College’s program dismissal appeals process. Appeals are limited to procedural errors that the student can demonstrate
negatively affected the outcome.
The student initiates the appeal process by submitting a hard
copy of the statement of appeal to the Assistant Vice President
of Academic Affairs and Dean of Graduate Studies (AVP-Graduate Studies); email is not acceptable. The statement must
identify each procedural error and state how each error negatively affected the outcome. The statement of appeal will be
the only basis of the student’s appeal. The AVP-Graduate Studies must receive the student’s statement of appeal within 14
calendar days of the date on the department’s written notification of dismissal.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the statement
of appeal to the program chair/director. The program must
submit a response to the student’s statement of appeal within
15 business days of the date that the statement was received
by the AVP-Graduate Studies’ office. A hard copy of the program’s response should be submitted to the AVP-Graduate
Studies. The AVP-Graduate Studies will send a copy of the
program’s response to the student.
The AVP-Graduate Studies will convene the Program Dismissal Appeals Committee, which will include the AVP-Graduate Studies as a non-voting chair and three program faculty
members (one from programs not named in the appeal: Social
Work, Education, Physician Assistant Studies, Nursing, Business, Leadership).
Augsburg College I 13
Academic Programs and Policies
The Program Dismissal Appeals Committee will schedule its
hearing within 15 business days of receipt of the program’s
statement of response. The Committee will meet with the student and a program representative to review the procedures
and ask questions of both the student and the program representative. The student and program representative may each
bring a third party to the review meeting (limited to an Augsburg College faculty member, staff member, or student). The
role of the third party representative is to provide support to
the student or the program representative, not to serve as an
advocate during the meeting.
Dropping Courses or Withdrawing
Students who enroll in courses but later decide not to attend
must formally drop their courses through the registrar’s office
prior to the start of classes to avoid being charged for those
courses. Students who do not properly drop courses will be
responsible for the tuition, regardless of non-attendance.
Courses may be dropped or withdrawn online through
AugNet Records and Registration or in person at the Enrollment Center during hours of operation. If you need assistance
with this, contact your program faculty at least two days in
advance of the start of classes.
Independent Study
Students may request to complete an independent study
course as an addition to the required coursework. A faculty
sponsor is required for an independent study project, and
project proposals must be approved by the program director
in order to receive credit. Normally, independent study may
not be used as a replacement for a standard course offered in
the curriculum, with the exception of the general elective (if
approved). A special independent study registration form is
required and is available at the Enrollment Center.
Terms of Non-attendance
Students who interrupt their program enrollment for longer
than one semester or three trimesters must readmit to the
College and program to resume their degree program. For an
absence of any length, students should coordinate with their
program director prior to leaving. Due to a variety of program
schedules and cohorts for some degrees, it is required that
students meet with their adviser and obtain the advice of their
director.
Evaluation of Transfer Credit
Students may petition the program director for transfer credit
to apply to program requirements. The transfer of credit will
be evaluated on an individual basis. Students will be asked to
provide appropriate documentation regarding previous
coursework, including but not limited to an official transcript,
course description, and syllabus. In order to be considered for
transfer, a course must be from a regionally-accredited college
or university and graded 3.0/B or better. Courses must have
been taken at the graduate level and course content must be
comparable to program requirements at Augsburg.
Graduate Catalog I 14
The maximum number of course credits that can be transferred to these program is as follows:
Master of Arts in Education (2.0)
Master of Arts in Leadership (2.0)
Master of Arts in Nursing (3.0)
Master of Business Administration (6.0)
Master of Science, Physician Assistant Studies (Contact program coordinator)
Master of Social Work (8.0)
Augsburg course credits are equivalent to four semester
hours or six quarter hours. Therefore, transfer credits that are
reported to Augsburg as semester or quarter hours are converted to Augsburg course credits by dividing by four or six
respectively.
Courses and credits that are accepted in transfer are recorded
on the student’s transcript. Grades and gradepoints from other
institutions are not transferred to Augsburg and are not included in the student’s cumulative grade point average.
Student Rights
The College has adopted a statement of student rights and responsibilities and has provided for due process in the matter
of disciplinary action, grievances, and grade appeal, as outlined in the Augsburg Student Guide, at
www.augsburg.edu/studentguide. Students have a right to experience education without discrimination.
Grievance Procedures Involving Augsburg College Faculty Members and Students
Part I—Introduction/Preface
Augsburg College is committed to a policy of treating fairly all
members of the college community in regard to their personal
and professional concerns. However, times do occur in which
students think they have been mistreated. This procedure is
provided in order to ensure that students are aware of the way
in which their problems with faculty members can be resolved
informally and to provide a more formal conciliation process
when needed. Each student must be given adequate opportunity to bring problems to the attention of the faculty with the
assurance that each will be given fair treatment. The faculty
member must be fully informed of the allegations and given
an opportunity to respond to them in a fair and reasonable
manner.
Definition of Grievance
A grievance is defined as dissatisfaction occurring when a student believes that any conduct or condition affecting her/him
is unjust or inequitable, or creates unnecessary hardship. Such
grievances include, but are not limited to a violation, misinterpretation, or inequitable application of an academic rule, regulation, or policy of the College or prejudicial, capricious, or
manifestly unjust academic evaluation.
Academic Programs and Policies
College policies and procedures that do not come within the
scope of the Grievance Procedures are the sexual harassment
policy, the sexual violence policy, the Committee on Financial
Petitions, Discipline Process, and Academic Standing.
Time Limits
Time limits will include only business days (M–F) for the program in which the student was enrolled. (Weekends, and vacation days are not included; summer may not be included
depending on the student’s program.)
Part II—Informal Process
It is always the student’s responsibility to know these procedures and timelines and to follow them.
A. Any time a student feels that she/he has been mistreated by
a faculty member, the student should contact the faculty
member to discuss the problem and attempt to resolve it.
B. If no mutually satisfactory solution can be reached with the
faculty member or if, in unusual circumstances, the student
prefers not to confer with the faculty member, the student
should discuss the problem with the department chairperson
of the faculty member and attempt resolution of the problem.
C. If the problem cannot be resolved in discussions with the
faculty member or department chairperson, or if the faculty
member and the department chairperson are the same individual, the student may contact the vice president of academic
affairs and dean of the College.
• In unusual circumstances, the time limit may be extended
by the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the
College. A grievant or respondent must submit a written
request for such extension before the end of the time limit.
If the vice president of academic affairs and dean of the
College thinks the extension is warranted, the Dean will
notify all concerned persons in writing.
E. If the grievance has been resolved, either by agreement or
by expiration of the time limits, a copy of the informal grievance and statements of the resolution will be kept by the vice
president of academic affairs and dean of the College for one
year. Neither a copy of nor any reference to the grievance will
be placed in the personnel file of the respondent.
If these informal discussions do not resolve the problem to
the satisfaction of the student, a more formal conciliation procedure is available in Part III of this document. Note: A student must file a written grievance, per below, within five days
after completion of the informal process
Part III—Formal Process Preface
If a student has a grievance with a faculty member that has
not been resolved through the Informal Grievance Process described in Part II of this document, the student may then seek
resolution through formal procedures.
For a complete copy of the procedures, contact the dean’s office, Academic Affairs.
D. The student must begin the Informal Grievance process
within 15 days of the conduct giving rise to the grievance, by
submitting an Informal Grievance Form to the vice president
of academic affairs and dean of the College.
• The time limit to begin the Informal Grievance process for
a grade appeal will be 30 days from the last published finals
date for the relevant term. It is the responsibility of the student to maintain a correct and current address on file with
the registrar.
• If the student could not reasonably be expected to be aware
of the conduct when it occurred, the student will have 15
days to file the grievance from the date on which the student could reasonably be expected to be aware of the conduct or condition that is the basis for the grievance. It is
the responsibility of the student to establish the reasonableness of such non–awareness. The vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College will determine if this
paragraph applies to a grievant.
• The vice president of academic affairs and dean of the College and the student must ensure the informal process is
completed in 20 days. (See Part I for definition of time
limits.)

Graduate Catalog I 16
Admission of International Students
Augsburg College graduate programs encourage qualified applicants from other countries to apply.
An F-1 student is a nonimmigrant who is pursuing a “full
course of study” to achieve a specific educational or professional objective at an academic institution in the United States
that has been designated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to offer courses of study to such students, and
has been enrolled in SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System).
A student acquires F-1 status using form I-20, issued by a
DHS-approved school through SEVIS. Status is acquired in
one of two ways: 1) if the student is abroad, by entering the
United States with the I-20 and an F-1 visa obtained at a U.S.
consulate, or 2) if the student is already in the United States
and not currently in F-1 status, by sending the I-20 to USCIS
(United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) with an
application for change of nonimmigrant status.
A student who is maintaining valid F-1 status may transfer
from another DHS-approved school to Augsburg by following
the transfer procedures set forth in the F-1 regulations.
In addition to fulfilling all general admission requirements for
a particular graduate program, prospective F-1 students must
also comply with the following:
A. Foreign Credential Evaluation
Augsburg requires foreign credential evaluation for any transcript(s) from an institution outside of the United States. This
evaluation should include the following:
• Analysis of credentials—to determine if your degree is
equivalent to an accredited U.S. bachelor’s degree.
• Course-by-course evaluation—to show your complete
course listing with credit values and grades received for
each course.
• Calculation of grade point average—to demonstrate your
Graduate Admissions
cumulative grade point average using the standard U.S.
grading system, i.e., A=4.0, B=3.0, C=2.0, D=1.0, F=0.0.
• Translation to English (if applicable)
The evaluation report must be sent directly to Augsburg’s
Adult and Graduate Admissions Office. Refer to World Education Services at http://wes.org for direction on transcript evaluation.
B. Proof of Financial Support
International applicants must provide reliable documentation
that they have financial resources adequate to meet expenses
for the duration of their academic program, which include tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, health insurance, personal expenses, and living expenses for
dependents (if applicable).
Funds may come from any dependable source, including
scholarships, fellowships, sponsoring agencies, personal
funds, or funds from the student’s family. Documentation of
scholarships and fellowships may be in the form of an official
award letter from the school or sponsoring agency; documentation of personal or family funds should be on bank letterhead stationery, or in the form of a legally binding affidavit.
Government Form I-134, Affidavit of Support, or Augsburg’s
Financial Sponsorship form can be used to document support
being provided by a U.S. citizen or U.S. legal permanent resident. All financial documents such as bank statements must
be dated within three months prior to the date of application.
Health Insurance
All F-1 international students and their dependents (if applicable) are required to have adequate health insurance coverage for the duration of their program. International students
will be enrolled in the Augsburg international student plan
unless they fill out a waiver verifying proof of coverage
through an alternative provider for the same period.

Financing Your Education
Financing Your Education
Costs for Graduate Studies
Sponsored Scholarships
Each academic year the Augsburg Board of Regents reviews
costs and makes changes as required. The College reserves the
right to adjust charges should economic conditions necessitate.
Augsburg actively pursues non-Augsburg funding for special
scholarships. The availability of such scholarships may enable
the participation of individuals with limited financial means
as well as individuals working for volunteer agencies and
other organizations not likely to provide tuition reimbursement. Refer to the program sections or contact the programs
for more information.
For current academic year costs for graduate study, go to the
Enrollment Center webpage at www.augsburg.edu/enroll.
Financing Your Education
Financial assistance is available to graduate students who are
enrolled in a total of at least 1.0 course credit per term in any
of Augsburg’s graduate programs. Two full-credit courses per
term is considered full time. You may be eligible to finance
your education through loan programs from the State of Minnesota or the federal government. You may also select from a
variety of payment plans available each semester or trimester,
including a plan for those who receive company tuition assistance. Financial aid may be used for international programs
where credit is offered.
Payment Options
Various payment plans are available:
• Payment in full: Due after registration and before the beginning of the semester/trimester. No finance charge or administrative fee. Finance charge of 8% APR will apply
toward any unpaid balance after the start of the term.
• Loans, grants, and/or scholarships: If you plan to use the
loans that you have been awarded, you must request the
funding. These loans include Stafford, PLUS,
Alternative/Private, etc. All loan requests (either paper or
online) must be received and approved by the lender and
certified by Augsburg’s financial aid office, on or before the
first day of the term.
Company Reimbursement
An application for the Employer Reimbursement Payment
Plan must be filed once each academic year. Students enrolled
in the payment plan will be charged a $20 fee each term unless the account is paid in full by the start of the term or if financial aid will cover all costs for the term. This fee is
non-refundable after the 100% drop date. Final payment on
any remaining balance is due 60 days after the end of the
course. Accounts not paid in full by the due date will receive a
monthly $50 late payment fee and are subject to further collection efforts. The student is responsible for payment if the
employer does not pay for any reason.

student account and all adjustments for aid, loans, fines, deposits, etc. will be made before eligibility for a cash refund of
any resulting credit balance is determined. Allow two weeks
for a refund.
The refund is a percentage of the full tuition charged, not a
percentage of any deposit paid toward tuition, e.g. deposits
made under the employer reimbursement payment plan.

Master of Arts in Education
Master of Arts in Education
We are pleased with your interest in the Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program. Augsburg has a long history in
teacher education with alumni of our programs teaching throughout Minnesota and elsewhere. We know that Augsburg
College is an excellent choice for you to pursue your teaching dreams and goals—and here’s why.
OUR PHILOSOPHY The Education Department program themes include relationships, reflection and inquiry, diversity
and equity, and leadership. You can read about each theme on the following page, but for the MAE program, I want to
highlight one of the program themes—leadership. As this program theme suggests, we expect our students to leave our
programs as responsive, knowledgeable teachers prepared to exercise leadership in the classroom and, eventually, the
school and community.
Our urban setting provides yet another dimension to our programs through a combination of course content, field experiences, and classroom instructors. Our goal is that students will leave our programs as collaborative and capable teachers
committed to educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
OUR FACULTY Augsburg faculty members who teach in the MAE program are a mix of full-time and adjunct instructors,
all of whom have K-12 teaching experience. Many adjunct instructors are currently teaching in K-12 settings; all fulltime faculty members are frequent visitors to K-12 settings through student teaching and field experience supervision,
volunteer work, and/or in-service education. We understand the importance of what we do and what you hope to do. We
value good teaching and, most especially, we value good teachers.
OUR ACCESSIBILITY We realize that although teaching is your dream, your reality most likely includes work, family, and
personal responsibilities. Because we understand the demands adult students face, we offer flexible scheduling. A majority of licensure and graduate-level courses are taught in the evenings and weekends to allow you to manage these responsibilities while pursuing your goals. You will need to be available during the weekday for the challenge and responsibility
of field experiences, but education coursework is accessible through the weekend and evening schedules.
As a student in Augsburg’s Master of Arts in Education licensure and degree program, you will find yourself among interesting students and dedicated professors who believe that all children deserve a good, highly qualified teacher—the
teacher you can become.

Education Department Mission
The mission of the Augsburg Education Department is to develop responsive, knowledgeable teachers committed to educating all learners in a diverse and changing world.
Program Themes
Responsive, knowledgeable teachers understand the dynamic
interaction among relationships, reflection and inquiry, diversity and equity, and leadership. These four interrelated program themes provide lenses through which we filter our
practice.
Relationships
Learning is relational and communal. Responsive teachers create significant relationships with their students, colleagues,
and community partners by developing learning communities.
These nurturing learning communities provide a safe, trustworthy place where challenging and engaging questions can
be considered. We model the kinds of learning communities
that we expect our graduates to create. We share with our students a learning model that connects content, theory, and
practice in an ongoing cycle. Students and their learning are
the focus for responsive teachers. Therefore we embrace and
foster a progressive and constructivist orientation.
Reflection and Inquiry
Responsive teachers are reflective practitioners who are students of teaching and learning. Providing numerous frameworks through which to filter our experience encourages
intentional and thoughtful inquiry. Through field placements,
service learning, generative questions, and classroom experiences, students and faculty develop their perspectives about
teaching and learning. Critical reflection allows us to examine
content, theory, and practice in ways that transform our practice. We think it is important to understand and learn how to
manage the many polarities inherent in the teaching and
learning process.
Diversity and Equity
Responsive teachers embrace diversity and intentionally work
to ensure that all learners, especially those who for some reason have been marginalized, learn and develop in powerful
ways. We continually reflect on what it means to be a “school
in the city.” We recognize that each student is unique, shaped
by culture and experience; therefore, differentiating instruction is essential. The perspective of multiple intelligences,
learning style theory and teaching for understanding help us
differentiate and enable us to provide choice, variety, and flexibility. Responsive teachers believe that all students can learn.
They also have a sense of efficacy and believe that they can
help all students learn.
Leadership
Responsive teachers recognize that becoming a learning leader
is a developmental process, which begins in pre-service edu-
cation and continues throughout one’s career. Teachers serve
as leaders within the classroom, and with experience, increased confidence, and professional development become
leaders within the school, the district, and the community.
Teacher leaders view themselves as lifelong learners. They become role models committed to their profession as a vocation
rather than a job. Emerging teacher leaders keep student
learning at the center of their work while advocating for instructional innovation, constructivist curricular development,
and systemic change.
Master of Arts in Education Conceptual
Framework
Teacher leadership is the theme that threads through our
graduate licensure and degree completion programs. The
Augsburg Education Department believes that teachers are
leaders in their classrooms and should be leaders in their institutions and communities.
The leadership focus plays out in three ways. First, the additional work required in the graduate versions of the combined
undergraduate/graduate courses focuses on providing graduate students the chance to exercise leadership as well as extend their knowledge beyond the basic requirements. Second,
in the degree completion component, students are required to
include coursework focused on leadership and study aspects
of leadership as part of their degree program. Third, the final
project—be it an action research, a leadership application
project, or the performance assessment course—gives students the opportunity to study an issue of concern and, supported by research, define a means for addressing it.
Program Overview
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) is designed to provide
a teaching license as part of a master’s degree program. K-12
initial teaching licenses offered at Augsburg include:
• Elementary education (K-6), with or without a middle
school specialty area endorsement in math, communication
arts, social studies, or science. Also available is the pre-primary endorsement to the elementary license.
• Secondary education (5-12 and K-12) in social studies,
communication arts/literature, visual arts, health, mathematics, music, and physical education; and 9-12 in biology,
chemistry, and physics.
• K-12 special education, emotional and behavioral disabilities
• K-12 special education, learning disabilities
Teachers who are already licensed can work towards the MAE
degree through the following four licensure endorsement options:
• Pre-Kindergarten endorsement
• K-12 special education: emotional and behavioral disabilities
• K-12 special education: learning disabilities
• K-12 reading endorsement (This program is under revision.
Consult the Education Department for current status.)
Augsburg College I 21
Master of Arts in Education
All teachers seeking licensure through Augsburg must take
and pass all tests required by the state of Minnesota for licensure.
The MAE degree is also available without a license but with
an education core.
Accreditations and Approvals
Augsburg College is accredited by:
• The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools
• National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education
Augsburg College is approved by the Minnesota Board of
Teaching.
For a complete list of accreditations, approvals, and memberships, see page 9.
area endorsements, 5-12 social studies, 5-12 communication
arts, and K-12 art.
Additional licenses in the following areas are available
through a combination of weekday, weekday evening, and
weekend schedules: biology, chemistry, health, mathematics,
music, physical education, and physics. For these licenses, the
education and degree completion courses are taken during the
weekend and weekday evenings while some if not all of the
content area courses are taken during the weekday.
The weekend schedule is comprised of three trimesters spread
from early September through late June. In general, classes are
held every other weekend. The weekday schedule is comprised of two semesters spread from early September through
late April. Classes offered during the weekday meet two or
three times per week. Classes offered jointly between weekday
and weekend meet on a weekly basis in the evening. The official academic calendars can be found at
www.augsburg.edu/registrar.
Program Structure
The Master of Arts in Education (MAE) program is made up
of a core of education licensure courses coupled with a degree
completion option. Courses in the degree completion phase
are drawn from the Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) and
graduate courses in education. Most students in the MAE program pursue a K-12 teaching license as part of their program
plan. The MAE degree is also open to students who do not
want a teaching license but do want a background in education and leadership.
The MAE degree requires 9.0 or 10.0 Augsburg graduate level
courses, depending on the degree completion option. In addition, several courses at the undergraduate level are required
for licensure. Only courses taken at the graduate level apply
towards the MAE degree.
Course Credit
A full-credit graduate or undergraduate course (1.0) is equal
to four semester credits or six quarter credits. Each full course
offered within the weekend schedule meets for 28 hours with
the expectation of substantial independent study outside of
class.
Schedule
The majority of the education courses in the MAE licensure
and degree programs are offered through the weekend schedule. Some education courses and many undergraduate content
area courses are offered on a weekday evening schedule. The
MAL degree completion courses are offered primarily through
the weekend schedule. Summer session courses are offered
weekdays and weekday evenings.
The following teaching licenses are available entirely
through the weekday evening and weekend schedule: elementary education, middle school and preprimary specialty

bachelor’s degree and/or other coursework. Requirements are
determined by Minnesota licensure standards for specific college-level coursework in math, biology, physics, and earth science for all students seeking elementary licensure. Specific
requirements are on file in the Education Department.
Minnesota licensure standards allow for optional subject area
endorsements in communication arts/literature, social studies,
math, and science. The optional pre-K endorsement is also
available. Specific requirements for these endorsements are on
file in the Education Department.
Previous coursework can be accepted into the licensure program if it meets Minnesota standards and if a grade of C or
better was achieved. The Education Department and the content area departments determine the courses that are accepted.
Transcripts, course descriptions, and course syllabi are used to
make these determinations. Courses that are older than five
years are judged on a case-by-case basis. Graduate coursework
accepted into the licensure program is not automatically accepted into the MAE degree. The program has limits on the
amount and type of courses that are accepted. Grades of B or
better are required for transfer consideration. See the MAE
program director for approval of graduate coursework accepted in transfer.

Classroom
K-12 and 5-12 Secondary Education
K-12 and 5-12 licensures in several content areas are offered
through a combination of graduate and undergraduate coursework. K-12 licenses prepare teachers to teach a content area
across elementary, middle school, and high school. Licenses
for grades 5- 12 prepare teachers to teach at the middle and
high school levels. Graduate-level licensure coursework (500
and above) is available to students who already hold a bachelor’s degree and meet MAE admissions criteria.
The following content area majors are offered almost entirely
on weekends and weekday evenings: communication arts/literature, history or economics or psychology or sociology (all
for social studies), art. Students seeking 5–12 licensure in social studies must complete a broad-based core of courses in
the social studies in addition to a social science major. Education courses for these licenses are also taken during weekends
and weekday evenings.
The following content area majors are offered primarily or entirely through the weekday program: biology, chemistry,
physics, health, physical education, music, and mathematics.
Students seeking licensure in any of these areas will likely
need to take additional content courses in the weekday schedule. Students can obtain a 9–12 license in physics, chemistry,
or biology and have the option of adding the 5–8 general science to the 9–12 license. Students also can obtain the 5–8
general science license without the 9–12 license. Education
courses for these licenses are taken during weekends and
weekday evenings.
Licensure Requirements
The following requirements are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate level. All courses must be taken for licensure; four to six of them also may be taken at the graduate
level and applied toward the master’s degree in education.

approximately 20 hours per term in field experiences.
Undergraduate Content Area Requirements
The equivalent of a major in the licensure content area is required for K-12 and 5-12 licenses. Students who have majored
in a field in which we offer licensure must have their previous
coursework evaluated by the major department at Augsburg.
Two or more content area courses tied to Minnesota licensure
standards are generally required, even with a completed academic major.
Previous coursework is evaluated by the content area department and accepted if it meets Minnesota licensure standards
and if a grade of C or better was achieved. Coursework older
than five years is judged on a case-by-case basis. Specific
course requirements for each content area are on file in the
Education Department.
Graduate coursework accepted into the licensure program is
not automatically accepted into the MAE degree program. See

Purpose
Augsburg Weekend College provides an educational alternative to
adults who desire college experience but who work or have other
commitments during the week. It is a means by which men and women
may earn a baccalaureate degree, gain skills for professional
advancement, prepare for career change, or pursue a personal interest
in one or more areas of the liberal arts.
The Adult as Student
The Augsburg Weekend College program is designed to meet the
needs and preferences of adult learners. The program is based on the
assumption that the men and women who enroll in Weekend College
will be mature, self-disciplined and well-motivated adult learners who
seek a balance of classroom experience and individualized study. Each
course is therefore divided into periods of concentrated on-campus
study separated by time for independent study and class preparation.
Alternate Weekends
To accommodate this format for learning, classes meet on alternate
weekends for three and a half hours on either Friday evening, Saturday
morning, Saturday afternoon, or Sunday afternoon. Each class selected
by the student involves commitment to one of these four class periods.
Weekend College students may take from one to four different courses
by attending class every other weekend.
Community of Learners
This bulletin is published for the convenience of Augsburg Weekend
College students. Weekend College is a program of Augsburg
College and is subject to the policies and provisions as stated in the
Augsburg College catalog.
Essential to the goals of Augsburg Weekend College is participation in a
community of adult learners. Learning can be enhanced when the
student is involved in a stable community that provides opportunity and
encouragement to become involved in interaction both in and out of the
classroom. This community will be enriched by the presence of both
men and women with a variety of work and life experiences.
To facilitate this kind of community interaction, Augsburg encourages
Weekend College students to make use of college facilities such as the
library and college center, to take the opportunity of having shared
meals and coffee breaks, to participate in optional chapel services and
lunchtime seminars, and to attend other college activities such as music
and dramatic presentations and athletic events.

Augsburg Weekend College provides a number of student services to
assist adults in making educational and career plans, accomplishing the
academic tasks of a college education, working on their own personal
development, and participating in activities beyond the classroom.
Some of these services are:
Academic Planning
All Augsburg Weekend College students will have access to expert
academic advising services on an on-going basis to provide for
efficient, effective planning. Students enrolling in Weekend College who
have had college experience will have their previous work evaluated
early in the admissions process.
Career Planning Setvices
Staff from the Career Planning and Placement Office will assist adults in
assessing their career goals and personal abilities. This service, in
combination with sound academic advising from faculty in a chosen
major field, can result in an appropriate and manageable educational
and career plan for the individual involved.

writing, reading, math, time management, and study skills. Academic
tutors in specialized course areas are also available through the Center.

DEAN'S LIST
-

The Dean's list is published after each trimester, listing students whose grade
point average for the trimester is 3.5 or better, based on a minimum of two full
courses, or equivalent, graded on the traditional grading system, with no
incompletes in the courses offered for credit.
ASSESSMENT OF PREVIOUS
LEARNING (APL) PROGRAM
FEES AND PAYMENT SCHEDULE
Augsburg College recognizes that learning can and does take place in
many life situations. Some of t h ~ slearning may be appropriate for credit
recognition within the disciplines thai compose the academic programs
of a liberal arts college. The APL program (Assessment of Previous
Learning) at Augsburg provides a means by which a student's previous
learning, other than that which is transferred from another accredited
institution, may be presented for examination for possible credit toward
the completion of a baccalaureate degree.
Not all learning from life experience, however, is appropriate for credit
recognition at a liberal arts college. Such learning must meet two
essential criteria: (1) it is relevant to coursework in a field of study within
the Augsburg liberal arts curriculum and (2) it can be objectively
demonstrated either by comprehensive examination or committee
evaluation.
The APL program at Augsburg provides several means by which
students may have' their previous learning assessed for credit
recognition:
L

There will be a $10 additional fee for registration after the regularly
scheduled time, and a $25 late fee for registration after the first class
weekend.
Students who achieve acceptable scores in CLEP exams may receive
academic credit in Augsburg College. CLEP exams are available in a
variety of general and specific subject areas. For more information,
contact the Admissions Office (330-1002).
REFUND SCHEDULE
Departmental Assessment
A per course tuition refund will be made on the following basis:
(Students are responsible for cancelling courses with the Registrar's
Office in order to be eligible for the tuition refund.)
Students who wish to receive credit for a specific academic course and
do not have transcript evidence of completed work may request a
departmental assessment of previous learning. This will most often
include an examination that covers the essential components of the
course involved. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).

LATE FEES
CLEP (College Level Examination Program)
This is a credit assessment alternative in which a faculty committee
completes a credit evaluation of a learning portfolio submitted by the
student. Informational meetings and consultation are provided for
students who wish to prepare a portfolio of previous learning for credit
assessment. Students may apply for CAP after completing at least four
courses of academic work at Augsburg College with a cumulative GPA
of at least 2.5. For more information, contact the Registrar's
Office (330-1036).

I
DR. LELAND B. SATEREN, a
1935 graduate of Augsburg College,
received his master's degree from
the University of Minnesota i n
1943. He returned to Augsburg in
1946 and has directed the Augsburg Choir and served as chairman
of the Department of Music since
1950.In 1965 he was honored with
a Doctor of Humane Letters degree
from Gettysburg College, Gettysburg, Pa., and a Doctor of Music
degree from Lakeland College, Sheboygan, Wis. With many published
choral works to his credit, Dr.
Sateren has also written several
books and numerous articles on
choral music and its performance.
Wide interest i n the field of
music is evidenced by his professional memberships in the Music
Educators Association, the Hymn
Society of America, and his work
as a member of the Inter-Lutheran
Commission on Worship. The Augsburg Choir, under Dr. Sateren's
direction, has premiered several
contemporary pieces which emphasize t h e "new sound" i n choral
music. In December the choir sang
the premiere of Christobal Halffter's "Yes Speak Out Yes" i n the
General Assembly of the United
Nations in New York City with the
Minnesota Orchestra.
Choral Topics I

Recreation Period
KNUT NYSTEDT, a graduate of
the Oslo Conservatory of Music, is
conductor of the Norwegian Soloist
Choir and professor of choral conducting at the University of Oslo.
He is ;currently composer in residence at Augsburg College. In the
United States he has studied composition with Aaron Copland, conducting with Robert Shaw, a n d
organ with Ernest White. His compositions, both choral and instrumental. have been premiered i n
Norway by both the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra and the Norske
Solistkor and in this country by several orchestral and choral groups
including the Augsburg Choir. Mr.
Nystedt recently received the
St. Olaf Veda1 from the King of
Norway for his contributions to the
musical life of his country. In the
year of its birth, Nystedt's setting
of "De Profundis" won the coveted
Norwegian prize as the best composition of the year, all categories
considered, and it was subsequently
performed a t t h e International
Society for Contemporary Music.
Given its U. S. premiere by the
Augsburg Choir, the revolutionary
character of the piece opened new
paths in choral composition and
performance in this country. His
later "Praise to God" continued the
exploration of new sounds. This
work was given its world premiere
by the Augsburg Choir.
DR. DALE WARLAND has been
at Macalester College since 1967.
A native of Fort Dodge, Iowa, Dr.
Warland is a graduate of St. Olaf
College and has attended the University of Minnesota (M.A.) and
the University of Southern California (D.M.A.). His professional
career has included positions at
Humboldt State College (Calif.),
and Keuka College (New York) before joining Macalester. He has prepared several major choral works
for performance with the Minnesota Orchestra. During the past
season, the Macalester choirs participated q i t h the symphony i n
Penderecki's "St. Luke's Passion"
premiere in New York City and in
a local performance of "Missa
Solemnis" by Beethoven.
Minneapolis, the City of Lakes, offers a full
and varied program of recreation opportunities

"The Interpretation ?nd Performance of
Music by Knut Nystedt.
AUGSBURG
COLLEGE
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Music is never static. It is constantly alive speaking - expressing. As music continues to develop
new avenues and vehicles of expression, the director
must seek the understanding and techniques of
bringing this expression to his audience.
Leland B. Sateren and the Augsburg Choir have
long been associated with the presentation of "new"
choral music. Each year they have premiered important new works such as Nystedt's "Praise to God."
Knut Nystedt, Norway's leading composer of
choral music, is active in the "new" sounds in choral
composition. Mr. Nystedt is extending his stay as
composer in residence at Augsburg College to take
part in this workshop.
Dale Warland, director of choral organizations at
Macalester College, has been associated with the
preparation and performance of a number of larger
contemporary works including the New York City
premiere of Penderecki's "St. Luke's Passion" with
the Minnesota Orchestra.
Augsburg College has chosen this, its Centennial
Year, to enter the field of choral workshops. The
importance of this new music, the music of the
future, will be the primary focus of the Sateren
Choral Workshop in its first year.

Course
Information
COURSE VALUES at Augsburg College are measured in Term
Credits.
The number of credits assigned normally corresponds to the number of 50-minute periods the course
meets each week during a ten-week term o f the regular
academic year.
Term Credits are directly interchangeable with Quarter Credits.
AUGSBURG COURSES numbered 50 and above are considered
upper-division offerings and are intended primarily for
juniors and seniors. (Concordia offerings numbered 300
and above may be considered upper division.)
INDEPENDENT STUDY courses are available in a number of
departments and carry upper division credit, thus
permitting qualified students to earn such credit when
regular upper-division classes are not available. Work
in Independent Study is to be done under the direction
of a specific faculty member who will serve as guide
and evaluator.
Before registering for Independent Study a student
should obtain the approvalof the responsible department
and faculty member; approval forms are available from
the Summer School Office.
COURSES MARKED with a n asterisk (*) are offered subject to adequate demand. When registering f o r such a
course, a student should, if possible, list other
courses as alternate choices. Courses without the
asterisk are definitely scheduled a n d are, therefore,
particularly appropriate as alternates.
A ROOM DEPOSIT OF $10 should accompany the applications
of students intending to live in college housing.
FAMILY ACCOMMODATIONS may be available. Persons interested should communicate directly with Mr. Richard
Berg, Business Manager, Augsburg College.

Introducing Augsburg College
Education
in a Real World
(C tt~dentscommonly speak of graduating from college
as a
L*'way of getting i n t ~"the real world!' In fact, Auphurg
College provides students with an education in a real world. The
diversity of the faculty, staff, and student body, the structure of
the curriculum, and the academic environment minor the camplexity of Life in contemporary society.
The College's location in and involvement with a metropolitan
setting offer continuous access to cultural opportunities, career
experiences, and social realities that enrich shtdents' educations.
Augsburg's commitment to the liberal arts recognizes that the
reality in which contemporary persons live and the persons
themselves have been shaped by the tradition and history horn
which they come. The real world was not made this morning, and
it is not simple. Only a broad education can present our world as
it is and give persons the ability to deal with it. Similar1y,
Augsburg College's continuing dedication to its heritage as a
college of the church affirms a belief that the world is the creation
of a loving God and that human persons are inescapably spiritual
beings.
The College Mission Statement
These qualities of an Augshrg education flow from its mission state
ment which declares that the College exists to provide high quality
educational opportunities which are based in the liberal arts and shaped
by the faith arid vaIues of the Christian church and by the context of a
great metropolitan center.
Augsburgs location in the heart d the city represents the loom on which
the multialored fabric of its idmtity has been woven. WhiIe students
are pmpafed to take a place in and make a contibution to the worId in
which they Iive, they are educated to be critical of the quality of life in
their society and to be reflective of their own d u e s as they respond to it.
"... based in the liberal arts"
The academic program emphasizes the continuing vaZiditg of the liberal
arts as a foundation for developing the Iife of the mind. Augsbmg
CoIIege's faculty are dedicaid to chatlengvlg their students to achiwe
the highest academic standards while supporting &em in that endeavor
with excenent teaching and individual attention
Students are expected to develop their abilities in critical thinking and
communicationand to gain sensitivity to and appreciation for their own
and other cultures. Each student is encouraged to contemplate the
eternal philosophical and spiritual questions of human life and of
personal values and ethics. At Augsburg the great scholars, thinkers,
writers, and artists of the past and present are studied and valued.
Augsbtrrg College considers art understandingof the content and
method of sdcnce, a arecognition of the place of technology,and an
understanding of ways to maintain a sound body as important elements
of a complete education.
This insistence on the breadth of a traditional liberal arts education
reflects a firm belief that human beings are more than their ability to
perfom a job. It reftwrs further a concerted attempt to direct students
toward a full development of the many facets and capacities of the
educated person.
"...within the context of a
great metropolitan center"
Yet, bounded as it is by an interslate freeway and the center of a vital city,
Augsburg CoLlege is no ivory tower escape from the real world. The
College community continually interacts with the city by attending
culhrral events and civic activities and by inviting dty residents and
visitors to the campus as lecturers, performers, and mmfms.The city
M ~ maslaboratory for experiential leaning through Internships,
professional field experiences, and Cooperative Education.
"...and shaped b y faith and values"
This involvement with the real world is a reflection of Augsburg's
spiritual heritage which values all that God has created. While its
tradition supports intellectual freedom in the search for truth, the
ColIege affirmsits belief that all students should reflect upon their
ethical and spiritual values as part of becoming educated. Students are
encouraged though religion courses and through opportunities on
campus for the practice and examination of spirituality to consider their
relationship to God, to others?to society, and to the world,
Traditionally Augsburg College has insisted that an aspect of these
relationships is contained in the motto: "Education for Service." In these
words the College expresses a belief that, whatever career they pursue,
graduates should consider the duty of citizens to contribute to the
common good through service to others.
w
ithin the larger community of the city and the world,
Augsburg College is its own community. It is a community of
support and collegiality composed of persons of diverse talents; of
varied ethnic, national, cultural, and religious backgrounds; and of
complementary interests and orientations. Through a competent, committed faculty and a dedicated staff, Augsburg College builds with its
students a real world in which the whole person can be educated and
developed.
About
Augsburg
A College of the Church
Augsburg was the first seminary founded by N o r w e a n Lutherans in
America, named after the confession of faith presented by Lutherans in
Augsburg, Germany, in 1530. Augsburg opened in September 1869, in
MarshalI, Wisconsin, and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. The first college
students were enrolled in 1874 and the first graduation was in 1879.
Early Leaders
Establish a Direction
August Weenaas was Augsburg's first president (1869-1876).
Professor Weenaas recruited two teachers from Norway - Sven Oftedal
and Georg Sverdrup. These three men dearly articulated the direction of
Augsburg: toeducateNorwegianLutherans to minister lo immigrants;and
to provide such "coI1eg-e" studies tha t would prepare studentsfor theoIogical study.
In 1874they proposed a three part pram first -train ministerial candidates,
second - prepare future theological students and third - educate the
farmer, worker, and businessman. The statement stressed that a good
education is also practical.
Augsburg's next two presidents also emphatically rejected ivory tower
concepts of education. This commitment to church and community has
been Augsburg's theme for over one hundred years.
Education for Service
Keeping the vision of the "non-elitist" college, GeorgSverdrup, Augsburg's
second president (1876-1907), required students to get pre-ministerial
experience in city congregations. Student involvement in the community
gave early expression to the concept of Augsburg's motto, "Education for
Service."
In the 1890s,Augsburg leadersformed the Friendsof Augsburg, later called
the Lutheran Free Church. The church was a group of independent congregations committed to congregationalautonomy and personal Christianity.
This change made Augsburg the only higher educational institution of the
small Lutheran body. But the collegedivision was still important primarily
as an attachment to the seminary.
The Focus Changes
This attitude began to change after World War I. In 1911Georg SverdrupJr.
became President. He worked to develop college departments with an
appeal to a broader range of students than just those intending to be
ministers. Augsburg' admitted women in 1922 under the leadership of
Gerda Mortensen, Dean of Women. She spent the next 52 years at the
College as a teacher and administrator.
The College's mission assumed a double character -ministerial preparation together with a more general education for life in society. In 1937,
Augsburg elected Bemhard Christensen, an erudite and scholarly teacher,
to be president (1938-1962).His involvementin ecumenical and civic circles
made Augsburg a more visible part of church and city life.
After World War 11,Augsburg leadersmade vigorous efforts to expand and
improve academic offerings. Now the College was a larger part of the
institution than the seminary, and received the most attention.
Accreditation for the College
Augsburg added departments essential to a liberal arts college, offeringa
modem college program based on general education requirements and
elective majors. With cursimlum change came a long effort to become
accredited.
The College reached full accreditation in 1954, although many alumni had
entered graduate schools and teaching positions long before that time.
A study in 1962 defined the College's mission now as serving the good
society as a whole first, and the interests of the Lutheran Free Church
second. The Seminary moved to Luther Theological Seminary (now Luther
Northwestern Seminary)in St. Paul in 1963.
A College in the City
President Oscar A. Anderson (1963-1980)continued Augsburg's emphasis
on involvement with the city. He wanted to reach out to non-traditional
student populations, ensuring educational opportunity for all p p l e .
During his years of leadership the College became a vita1 and integral part
of the city. Also in these years, Augsburg added the Music Hall, Mortensen
Tower, Umess Tower, the C o Z l e ~Center, Ice Arena and PsychoIogy
Building.
Since 1980 Augsbwg has been Ied by Charles S.Anderson We has continued Augsburg's commitment to the value of a libera1 arts education,
emphasizingdiversityin enrollment efforts, spiritual growth and freedom
and an academic program that draws on the Esources of the city as
extensions of the campus and classroom.
Serving the Non-traditional Student
Aupburg's American M i a n Program is recognized as mc~essful.The
program has had the highest retention rate of W a n studentsin Minnesota
-=me 85 percent.The Black Student Support Program, initiated in 1969,
has had a growing number ofstudents and supports a Black Student Union
and a newspaper distributed by the office.
The campus is accessible to the physimlly handicapped with a skywaytunnel-elevator system connecting ten major buildings. In only its second
year, Augsburg's program for the learning disabled had 30 students enrolled. The program received a state award for excellence.
Weekend College, started in 1982 with 69 students, had an enrollment of
over SO0 in fa11 1988. Through Weekend College, adult students can work
M l i m e and pursuea bachelor's degree that has a practicalfocus on a liberal
arts base.
In January of 1987 Augsburg initiated a Master of Arts in Leadership
program. As in Weekend College, students can work full-time and take
graduate courses leading to a master's degree.
These programs bring working add& to the campus. They are comple
mented by the College's Cooperative Education Progsam Cbegun in 19%)
that places Augsburg students into paid work experiences. Tfte Co-op
Education Program helps s tadents get career experience in additiun to their
classroom studies.
Augsburg Today
Augsburg continues to reflect the commitment and dedication of the
founders who believed:
Augsburg education should be preparation for service in community
and church;
education should have a solid liberal arts core with a practical dimension in order to send out productive, creative and successful citizens;
the city with all its excitement, challengesanddiversity,is an unequaled
learning laboratory for Augsburg students.
Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution set in the heart of a great
metropolitan center.There arenow more than 11,000 Augsburg alumni. In
a world that has c h g d much since those first days of the College,
Augsburg still sendsout graduates who make a difference where they live
and work.

Your Education
A

liberal arts education costs more than tuition and fees
cover. The College raises that difference in gifts - from alumni,
faculty, staff, parents, church, friends, foundations, a n d endowment income.
However, the primary responsibility for paying for a college
education rests on students and their families. Financial aid is
intended to supplement those resources.

Financial Aid
Financing higher education could be the most significant investment a
person or family makes in a lifetime. So, proper planning and wise choices
are important, not only in choosing a college, but also in the methods used
to pay for it. Augsburg College, through its Office of Student Financial
Services, will help students and their families with both monetary and
advisory assistance to protect access to a quality education in spite of increasing costs.
Financial assistance awarded through Augsburg is a combinationof scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time work opportunities. The College
cooperates with federal, state, church, and private agencies in providing
various aid programs. For the academicyear 1986-87approximately 85%of
all students at Augsburg received scholarships, grants, loans and part-time
employment totalling over $7,200,000 from all aid sources.
The primary responsibility for financing a college education rests upon the
student and family. Financial aid is intended to supplement student and
family resources.
The Family Financial Statement (FFS) of the American College Testing
Program (ACT)or the Financial Aid Form (FAF)of the College Scholarship
Service (CSS)helps determine the amount of assistance for which a student
is eligible. This analysis estimates the amount a student and family can be
expected to provide for college expenses, taking into account such family
financial factors as current income, assets, number of dependents, other
educational expenses, debts, retirement needs, and special considerations.
